Re: Licence application for gambling……

100% agreed. I’m not averse to different businesses and things in the area that I don’t use/like if they contribute to the community etc. But in this case - it’s not providing much in the way of employment, gambling generally preys on those less fortunate and creates more social issues and being lim...

Re: Ignition under new management

No problem. Forgot to mention they are also very much planning on extending closing time as last orders have always been pretty early for various reasons but this is being looked at with last orders more like 10/10:30 then 9:30ish. Keep on supporting Ignition and the high street if you can folk 👍 as...

Yep - Know a load about it so here’s some word vomit lol. The 3 initial founders - Nick in particular who was the face/was by the far the most involved in running it - wanted to pass it on after having achieved their aim of very successfully building a not for profit brewery based around supporting ...

One closure, one opening!

Thought along my incessant twittering (sydenhamural) I would pop here to just say that: BOBs wine/bottle shop has now sadly closed permanently- however the nearest specialist one is only 2 mins walk - Bottlecave on the high street. Leo (@leo_foood on Twitter and on Instagram) have opened their veget...

Re: New board game night at Ignition

Well I’m glad I returned to post! Any questions fire away and I’ll be there from 5ish (!). Hopefully see you and anyone you fancy bringing on Thursday :)

Very doubtful you would need to book a table but if you are coming as a group of 4 let’s say might be worth emailing max@ignition.beer to book.
