15 Apr 05 - 07:00 AM (#1461963) Subject: RE: Black boy/ oberon sessions From: The Shambles In order to prevent causing offence - could you please ensure that the name of this pub is changed? Any fairies reading our forum may be offended by reference to 'The Oberon'. *Smiles* |
15 Apr 05 - 10:24 AM (#1462132) Subject: RE: Black boy/ oberon sessions From: Les from Hull We were very glad when the pub regained it's original name 'The Oberon', from the fairly meaningless 'Cask and Cutter', one of those name changes forced by an unthinking management company in the name of 'corporate identity'. Oberon The Black Boy, on the other hand has a similar management company but has kept the same name for quite some time, although admitedly not since it became a pub in 1729. Ye Olde Black Boy |
15 Apr 05 - 10:31 AM (#1462142) Subject: RE: Black boy/ oberon sessions From: Paco Rabanne Interesting point there Shambles, why is a Hull pub named after the King of the Fairies? Proximity to the docks perchance? |

15 Apr 05 - 11:09 AM (#1462179) Subject: RE: Black boy/ oberon sessions From: Les from Hull It's a well-konown mispront, Ted. It is very near where the Humber Ferry used to cross over to furrin parts, and so was named after the King of the Ferries. |

22 Feb 06 - 07:38 AM (#1675697) Subject: RE: Black boy/ oberon sessions From: Beardy Word of warning Les. Dean is concentrating on his new venture, The Vine in Albion St and Oberon has been opening rather erratically in recent weeks. Best to check with him on 01482 326990 to make sure he knows your coming. Stewart |
22 Feb 06 - 08:39 AM (#1675747) Subject: RE: Black boy/ oberon sessions From: Les from Hull Good point, Stewart - I'll check and make sure. Might we see you and Janet on Friday, or in Whitby at the weekend? |

22 Feb 06 - 02:17 PM (#1676073) Subject: RE: Black boy/ oberon sessions From: Les from Hull Well, the Oberon is in a state of flux at the moment (just like every other pub in the Country, thanks to those lovely 'pub management companies'), so I'll post again here tomorrow to confirm that the pub will be open and that they'll have some beer to sell us! |

28 Feb 06 - 09:34 AM (#1681030) Subject: RE: Black boy/ oberon sessions From: Beardy Les, I have spoken to Dean as well. The information is now public knowledge among CAMRA members so dont hold back old boy. This is what I know. Dean relinquishes the lease on the Oberon tomorrow, 1 March. Admiral Taverns, new owners having purchased the pub in last month, are advertising the pub for sale on the open market but already have an interested party, Paul Dixon Group. PDG have bought the banana warehouse next door and want to raise that area to the ground and build a new development on it. Problem is its in a conservation area although we suspect a deal has already been done with council. Should PDG get the Oberon chances are it will be demolished without re-opening again. As for Dean he is taking the lease on the White Hart, Alfred Gelder Street from 13 March. He has brewery renewing handpulls and beer lines in next fortnight so real ale should be back in the pub. Are you hoping to move session to there? Les, any other news from your conversations with Dean? Stewart |
28 Feb 06 - 10:00 AM (#1681045) Subject: RE: Black boy/ oberon sessions From: Les from Hull Dean has asked us to move the session there, but I would like to hear from others before we move. I'm sure the beer will be up to standard but as a humble Guinness addict I'll be interested in your views, of course. I'll be very sorry to see the Oberon go (in the interests of progress?). So, are people happy if we move to the White Hart? |
28 Feb 06 - 10:24 AM (#1681059) Subject: RE: Black boy/ oberon sessions From: Paco Rabanne I know I am only a very occassional visitor but my thoughts are:- 1) Flatten the Oberon tomorrow, and build flats on the site. 2) Guinness is for girls. 3) The White Hart is a glorious building compared to The Oberon. |
