JD Wetherspoon has confirmed the re-opening date of one of their Merseyside pubs after a £3m transformation.
The Master Mariner, in New Brighton, opened in 2013 on a site once occupied by RJs and the Playas Lounge nightclubs. Wetherspoons bought the neighbouring Lacy’s Bar in 2015 and was slammed for not developing the "eyesore" building, but their proposal to expand and create a bigger pub on the seafront was approved by Wirral Council last summer.
The Master Mariner closed in March, when building work began on the site. The pub’s existing staff have been relocated to other Wetherspoons in the area while the work is being carried out.
