\"Say<\/p>\n

Older Brixtonites will remember the\u00a0building\u00a0as the old Coach and Horses – or perhaps the short-lived IsoBar – but in recent times it’s enjoyed a chequered history as The Living Bar.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"The<\/p>\n

After a dodgy\u00a0period\u00a0which saw the premises being closed for several years<\/a> and then briefly\u00a0reopening \u00a0as a low rent butchers shop in December 2009, the Living Bar relaunched in April 2011 to minimal investment.<\/p>\n

\"Say<\/p>\n

By December 2011, the shabby-looking building was also hosting Vintage fairs before being reportedly bought up by the people behind the adjacent Satay Bar.<\/p>\n

\"Forever<\/p>\n

In the past month, the building has been cleaned up and renamed the\u00a0Market House, promising to “bring some speakeasy class to a new part of town with emphasis on traditional British with a modern twist. ”<\/p>\n

I’m not entirely sure what that means, but it looks like it’s going to be a\u00a0bistro during the day, and a trendy late night bar when the sun goes down.<\/p>\n

I’ll post up more when it opens later this month. If you want to read some background to the building, check out this 300+ post thread on urban75:\u00a0WTF! Look what they’ve done to the Coach & Horses\/Living Bar<\/a>.<\/p>\n
