Thread Name: Name suggestions for a fairly new pub.
Subject: RE: Name suggestions for a fairly new pub.
Big Tim mentioned the Slug and Lettuce. This is now a chain pub name. The one in Winkfield has now reverted to being The Winkfield. UK comedy show I'm Sorry I'll Read that Again had a pub called Ferret and Terrapin but Ferret and .... is now also a chain.There are a lot of pubs based on old jobs: "Blacksmith's Arms" etc. perhaps we ought to go for new ones: "Web Developer's Arms"? (Nah!). To really draw the punters: Banjo and Bodhran or Kazoo and Washboard?
I understand many Irish pubs are named after present or previous owners so folk pub could be Seeger's or Ledbelly's or Guthrie's . Ramblin' Jack's would be a good one.
But I must get down to work...
