The Deck’s Mike Condy tells us that the bar remains open during renovations, and the new place will look a lot like the old—”everything except the six-foot ceilings,” he says, “lots of beams and stonework. Later this month, the bar will close for a week or two while the finishing touches are completed, and then reopen in November, with a proper grand opening in December.
Expect all the best of the waterfront Lower Deck’s atmosphere, food and music, with Friday and Saturday evening (9:30-12:30) entertainment supplied by the rotating stock of musicians—Signal Hill, McGinty and the like—as well as a Friday afternoon (5:30-8:30pm) matinee show featuring The Dwight D`eon Band and Adam Driscoll. After a while, the matinee might be repeated on Saturdays.
“We’ve been embraced by the neighbourhood,” says Condy. “They’re looking for a nice neighbourhood pub, with good food and music.”
