Having only just seen this thread, I agree that the front needs something to encourage people to go there, but I would have thought that if the 'fun pub' turns out to be as Nichola suggests, it can only put off more people than attract them - would certainly put me off, anyway! 
Hopefully it won't be like this - or Fethiye, here we come!

Can't beat the condemning of something before it's even happened Steve :D

I'd love a Grumpy Pub, I think you may have something there. I've also long pondered opening a hotel in Fawlty Towers style, being rude as possible to guests - I reckon that would be a winner too  :)

I'm queuing for a seat in Scunners grumpy pub.. That will pack the place out.
My theme would be a different Effes price every day.... And real fake Guiness.
Anyway... Can't wait for the new pups first CBF mistake and another 12 pages.

If any anyone needs a template in order to model the Grumpy Pub I know of one that fully lives up to its billing - "If you haven't got a nice word to say about anyone ... you have come to right place". That might attract some EPKs don't you think?
