THE FORMER Croes Howell is set to open under new leadership next week.
The restaurant and bar, and wedding venue announced its shock closure in late November of last year.
The Leader reported that a new company closely linked to the Fat Boar was in talks to take over the running of the venue.
The Fat Boar's director, Rich Watkin said he hoped the pub and restaurant and events venue, situated between Llay and Rossett, could reopen in early April, but that timeline was not achieved.
The Wrexham AFC player involved in the takeover was recently revealed as home-grown midfield star Jordan Davies.
The Reds star asked for help on a name for the venue, which has yet to be announced.
Yesterday, the Fat Boar said they were hoping to open for drinks in the "next week or so", with food following in the coming weeks.

A spokesperson for the Fat Boar said: "We were delighted this week to be given the green light from the council to re open the Croes Howell.
"We’ve been carrying out a few improvements to get ready……
"Our aim is to be open to serve drinks in the next week or so and then we will be serving food a couple weeks after that.
"We can’t wait to get going."
