However a number of issues regarding punters dispersing, underage customers and the irresponsible retailing of alcohol have resulted in the current decision.

The response, as usual concerning the bar, has been mixed on social media.

Some are happy with the decision while others are distraught at the news.

Many have noted that underage users of social media expressing their unhappiness has probably done the venue no favours.
