The Commercial Tavern seems occasionally to have forgotten its opening hours, has a pool table in awful nick and serves quite piercingly dreadful cocktails upstairs — but to its regulars, it is magnificent.

  • Saving Your Local Pub: Success Stories Paul Ainsworth, Chair of Pub Campaigns
    Saving Your Local Pub: Success Stories Paul Ainsworth, Chair of Pub Campaigns March 2017 Saving Your Local Pub: Success Stories Every year, CAMRA works with local campaigners and others across the country to help save pubs from redevelopment and closure. In this document you will find examples of pubs which have not only been saved but have gone on to be successful. These “phoenix” pubs had mostly been written off by their previous owners as commercially unviable; in many cases developers had used the argument that the pub was in terminal decline to support their change of use plans. However, our examples go to show that, in the right hands, most pubs can be made to succeed. The first set of stories feature campaigns by community groups to prevent the loss of their beloved local. We then move on to pubs which were 'failing' or had been closed, sometimes for a long period, but which have been rescued by new owners who saw the potential that the previous regime missed. In each category, we follow up the stories with a list of other saved pubs we know about. If you have a story you would like to share or if you would like any advice, please contact us on [email protected] Pubs saved by their communities Wheatsheaf, Tooting Bec, London SW17 Website: www.thewheatsheafsw17.com • When the pub closed in 2012, there were strong rumours locally that owners Enterprise Inns were in negotiations to sell the site to Tesco. A campaign was formed to save the pub, supported by the local MP, Sadiq Khan.
