Park View - Phoenix from the flames

[claret wizard]

Looks like it has a buyer from a post on Facebook I’ve seen. Very Credible!

[HS98]

just seen this aye, hopefully does a good job.

[claret10]

Did the plans that got announced about Carlsberg brewery buying it and turning it into "The Kilby Arms" get scrapped?

[Longsider]

Are they going to put another tier on it?

Nobody would pay the ransom fee to be it's Landlord.

[Shore claret]

It could be the VAR room.

[AlargeClaret]

Either someone with money to burn and very brave or a simple tinpot fantasist . Virtually impossible for a “ matchday” boozer to turn a decent profit now most locals are no longer used/long since shut down .

[ClaretTony]

Needs knocking down

[claret wizard]

Not sure if they've taken on the lease from Star Pubs or bought them out, but the posting I saw was from someone who already has a successful pub in the Ribble Valley. Sure that something official will come out at some point.

[jrgbfc]

Bit surprised at this, really didn't expect it to reopen as a pub now. Good news though.

A chain of 3 successful food pubs I believe

Hopefully someone can make a go of it. Was really depressing seeing all that potential trade on a match day just standing around outside the bookies, club shop etc and the pub just sat there boarded up. As long as it's run properly it's a much better bet than the fanzone and cricket club.

[theroyaldyche]

Anythings better than the cricket club for a pint

That is a dump

[evensteadiereddie]

Thousands would disagree.

The beers not the best out of plastic cups but it's alright on a nice day if crickets on or you have kids that like to play football on it.

Only problem is standing there for half an hour waiting to get served or when the police make them close the bar for no apparent reason.

[BurnleyFC]

So who’s actually bought it?

[Steve-Harpers-perm]

Certainly a decreasing number of places to get a pint in a glass near the ground these days!

[Funkydrummer]

Barnfield have bought it and it will be up and trading by 2022.

[elwaclaret]

Always thought the club would end up owning it. Surely could have been made into an asset / addition to the match day experience.

[ClaretAL]

Mmm Barnfield buying as a makeshift Burnley FC buy maybe?isn't it 10 months before ownership can change hands?

[Herts Clarets]

Was it Barnfield that built the corner stands

[Funkydrummer]

Not yet.

[Steddyman]

On a slightly related note, the Park View Chippy is open again too. Spoke to the owner and he said he had been in hospital with a serious illness but had now made a full recovery.

[Funkydrummer]

Now that IS good news.

[John Johnson 1605]

Will the new owners be licensed to sell Twix ?

[BurnleyFC]

Who’s bought it and what’s with all the secrecy?

Ribble Valley pubs chain - James’ Places? Seafood Pub Company? Those who own the Calf’s Head and the Waggoners?

Surely none of those.

Edit: Seen on Facebook, it’s those who own the Station in Clitheroe. I hope the service is better but good luck to them!

I hope they have better opening times too.

[Billy Balfour]

Well good luck to them - they're going to need it.

Never have a plastic glass before a game but then I don’t drink in pubs/clubs where you can take your ale outside.Simples

In a lot of places now it's licensing conditions, plastic glasses must be used for x hours before and after a game.

Have you finished your cheap Bene from Tesco then?

[jrgbfc]

Anyone heard any more gossip about the pub reopening? Seems to have gone a bit quiet, hope it hasn't fallen through.

Some people are saying it's because he ate his own food.
