Today is not a good day!
We have decided to surrender our lease on the leopold! The reason is because our landlord (Enterprise Inns) have decided to put our rent up to an extent that we feel that the business is no longer viable! It is not a decision we have taken lightly and we have been negotiating with them for 8 months. We would like to thank all of our customers for the continued support but unfortunately Enterprise Inns do not share our vision. How a building the size of the Leopold is worth 50k a year rent is beyond us but that's what they want! (On top of ridiculous beer prices). To this end our last trading day will be Sunday 19th February. Most importantly we would like to thank our brilliant staff that made our little pub the home it has become to you all for the last 14 years.
Thanks to all of you. X

The Leopold is a truly awesome and busy pub, this is a travesty.
