Possibly. A lot of the old Tap regulars are now at the Station and the Crown, and are not interested in going back in if they are forced to listen to constant loud music and be surrounded by teenagers.
With the right balance of investing in the local community and enterprising attitude I think...
Enterprise Inns still have it, and they move in very mysterious ways! If it was managed well it could be a success, it was in Den's day and before that Pam and Ed's.
The Tap is re-opening, appropriately, on Thursday 1st April. There has been no promotion and the whole thing has been veiled in secrecy although it is actually being taken over by a guy called Steve who used to drink in the Hollingbury pub.
