Also, on another note it's sad to see another historical London building be forced to close partly as a result of posh NIMBY neighbours.
Hopefully it can reopen as a better establishment and won't get demolished to make way for a souless new block of "luxury apartments" or another bloody coffee shop! |

Damn.
I remember when a good night used to be the Norfolk Village, The Whitehorse, The Spread Eagle then The Axe, then finishing in The Rainbow as it was open really late.
Its a shame to see them all gone. |

An old haunt - would sit and chat with the girls - Cindy, Sabrina - was a great venue - you could do a crawl from Norfolk arms, sports bar, white horse, spread eagle, browns and then Axe - I'm going back 25 years ago now |

"Was this the place where you put money in the cup for the dancers? "
Yeah, it was one of the Shorditch High Street Strip pubs.
Going back about 20 years the format was no stage - so the girls just paraded up and down the floor in front of the bar while doing heir "dances". If you were a regular and known to be "safe" - ie non grabby - this could be very interesting, Its not the first time I was effectively used as a pole - ok so no acrobatics lol - but a VERY close dance because the girl knew my hands would stay by my sides.
I used to work shifts meaning I would be off during the week, and if I fancied a drink in the afternoon before meeting my missus after work, I could go and watch some pretty girls or sit in some other pub on my own, funnily how the strip pubs won... |

Even the hipsters have been priced out these days! They've mostly migrated South of the River!! |

"Browns is still open!!! Had many a good time at some of these places. So sad to see them closing"
I always preferred the strip pubs to the strip clubs.
The Gryphon up by Greys Inn Road is still in operation as far as I know |

"The only one I have visited when in London was Horns. Is that still there. I am down again in early April so may have a trip to that area. "
Mr Google shows it as open and owned by the same people as Browns, calling it a Sister club. |
