We know the rumour mill has been in full swing over the last few months and we all feared the worst, a Wetherspoons, a cocktail bar, a gin and board game emporium, but fear not, Sweeney's will remain Sweeney's and continue to bring you the most vital live acts, club nights and Djs this country has to offer."
We have to say we're delighted with the news. Keep an eye on their Facebook page for information and any upcoming events in the future.
