We have a sign on the rear doors that you are not able to use the rear door after 10.30, we also announce this to customers present, unfortunately people will still use it as we are unable to lock the rear door as it is a fire exit, if we see people go to the rear door we ask them to use the front. At 2 o clock the pub is closed and there is no one in left in the bar, we are locking up which the back door is the only way out therefore we have to close the shutter. If you have any problems please come in and speak to the manager. Thank you.
