    Default Good or bad news?

    British pub landlord Enterprise Inns plans to boost the number of pubs it manages to between 750 and 850 by 2020 from just 16 now in response to a new law that backs tenant publicans and stands to hit its profits.

    Nowdays it's already difficult to "spot the guvnor":heaven help us in managed houses.No continuity,motivation and lack of interest.Best way to run a pub into the ground.

    The two E17 GBG pubs that I occasionally visit the Rose and Crown and the Bell are both Enterprise owned. If Enterprise put managers in I would simply never go there at all and I'm sure that many others would do the same.
    This place is an Enterprise managed house. I gave it probably a generous 5 but the two one post wonders were a lot more harsh. I haven't returned and will not do so.

    The Nags Head the third GBG pub in Walthamstow is also Enterprise but I haven't been there since it was a Watney's pub. I tried to visit one Friday afternoon a year or two ago and it was shut!
