The bar's owners have confirmed its 'impending closure'
Customers have reacted with sadness to the news that a popular bar on Bridgford Road in West Bridgford has closed its doors. The Black Pearl was known for its unique décor, cocktails and pizza.
Owners Dan Brown and Drew Hewitt said: "Unfortunately we will be closing The Black Pearl once the building work begins, we had hoped to remain trading but as it is major structural work and it's looking rather bleak. We've enjoyed every minute of being here although there is hope we can return once the building works are completed, we are unsure of how long this will take and cannot ask our fifteen staff to wait around for an unspecified amount of time.
One of the reasons for the closure is the building work which is due to take place on the site to develop seven new flats above the retail units. This will also affect Castle Beauty which is next door to the bar. Kate Ormrod, general manager of The Botanist bar said.: "I think it's really sad and coming from the hospitality sector, West Bridgford had become a destination area. The closure of The Pearl definitely will affect other businesses in the area as there won't be that many places to go. These closures concern everyone." The Botanist is next door to The Black Pearl on Bridgford Road.
