Landmark Nottingham pub sold to craft beer operator

A landmark Nottingham pub which closed suddenly on January 30 has new owners.

The Riverbank Bar has been sold to Brewhouse & Kitchen which will refurbish the ground floor on the building and turn it into a craft beer pub and microbrewery.

Adam Perkins, who also owns Tom Browns Brasserie in Gunthorpe said: “We would like to take the opportunity to thank all the staff and customers, old and new, for making it such a special place.

“We’ve had seven wonderful years at the Riverbank but it’s time for us to move on.

“We will look forward to focusing on Tom Browns and spending time with our families.

“It’s really exciting that Brewhouse & Kitchen has chosen our site for its next venture and we wish it all the success.”

Brewhouse & Kitchen operates 16 pubs nationwide.
