READERS have been getting in touch to give us their thoughts ahead of Wrexham's newest bar opening next weekend.

Now known as 'The Midland', on High Street in Wrexham, the site was formerly the home of the North and South Wales Bank Wetherspoon pub until January this year.

The new owners, Sam Ansloos and his dad Marcus Ansloos have been looking for a venue to expand their brand.

The team has the Con's Club, in Ruabon which opened two years ago and a year later opened The Cefn Club, Cefn Mawr.

Now they are bringing their business model to the centre of Wrexham at The Midland.

It will officially open to the public as of Saturday, December 2, with a grand opening taking place at 8am that day.

According to Sam, the venue will be “all purpose” with plans to open at 8am till late at night, serving food which will be locally sourced.

It will also have a “sports bar” feel, with over 30 TV screens, pool tables, and dart boards.

The Midland will also host themed nights, have entertainment and live music on offer.
