Hey, has anyone noticed how so many of our local watering holes have suddenly sprouted the Orange & Black BWS (Woolworth) colours?
I know the Taverner group is one of many hotel chains that have been taken over by BWS in Woolies push to have a monopoly on all the pokie venues. In doing this, they have standardised all their bistros in that every BWS menu is the same, the prices the same (AND way overpriced), the food the same AND very ordinary, and even having cut out bread rolls to save a few cents. Drink prices (Bar & Bistro) have been made the same across the board in every BWS establishment! Happy hours also have been abolished. I see this as the demise of the "corner pub"!... Your thoughts?  :
