wasn't Uprock supposed to re-open this weekend?

The official Uprock re-opening party is next Friday, 18th.

This Sunday and throughout next week Uprock will be running a soft opening to work out all the kinks before we fully open.

Everybody is welcome to come down for Sunday's event (the Norwegian DJs + Xiao Kris party).

Please be aware that we will not be fully stocked with all of the beers on our menu. Some of our staff may be beyond useless. At the time of writing our TVs can only be hooked up to internet feeds as our TV signal is too weak, the speakers aren't fully levelled, the place smells of paint and bleach, and a whole host of other aesthetic issues.

We're working really hard to get the place fully ready by 18th June so, please, if you do come over the next 6 days, be patient with us but feel free to give us any feedback. This is the week when we fine-tune.
