Gerry's Bar - The end as we know it!

 Gerry's Bar as we all knew it has sadly came to an end yesterday with friends invited to come and say goodbye to the bar in the best way possible....plenty of loud music and one of their famous BBQ's!

Colin & Simon

Opened in 1974 the bar has been everyone's favourite local in Lloret, we all look back to the good times with Gerry & Julie with fond affection along with Colin & Angie and all the staff who have worked there over the years. Julie and Gerry's son Simon, Colin, Angie and Ian have been keeping the bar open since Gerry & Julie passed away, but now Simon has decided to give up the bar and concentrate on other things. The bar will be closed for the next 2 weeks or so while some alterations are carried out but will reopen under new management.

Ian & Simon

 Gill was there on the first day the bar opened, and she just had to be there on the last!

Colin, Simon and friends...Angie in the chair can now take it easy!
