Sadness as popular West Bridgford bar The Black Pearl announces 'impending closure'

A popular bar in West Bridgford has announced its "impending closure" due to upcoming building work to create new flats above the premises. The Black Pearl on Bridgford Road is known for its cocktails and quirky design.

The decorative bar opened just ahead of the Covid restrictions in February 2020, offering cocktails, pizzas and sharing planks. It was known for the 10ft alligator which once sat on the roof.

Last year, it was announced there would be flats built above the restaurant and bar. The owners of The Black Pearl have said the upcoming building work means it is too uncertain to continue and they had their 15 staff members to consider.
