From what I've heard (from someone who actually knows the new owners) – they have no intention of kicking out the Chandos regulars by pricing them out. That said, the new owners will obviously be making changes – many of which sound positive (wider selection of drinks, food, new decor) that even the most cynical would surely agree are positives. Let's not presume that all gentrification is automatically bad otherwise what hope have we for improving our communities…?
