A HUGELY popular Colchester bar has announced it will be closing.
Yates, in Head Street, has been a staple location in Colchester for more than 20 years. According to records, Yates is Britain's oldest pub chain.
During the day the unique venue accommodates to families and people looking for a nice meal.
As the sun sets, the pub transforms into a vibrant nightclub, offering great drinks and even better tunes.
Bright lights, loud music, a huge dance floor and an outdoor smoking area are all reasons the pub has been a must-go location for punters over the years.
With a capacity of 550 people, hundreds of people from Colchester and other places in Essex have fond memories of the club.
But bosses have announced the well-known night-out destination will be closing down on July 13, 2025.
A spokesman for Stonegate Group, which own Yates, said: “We can confirm that Yates Colchester will be closing its doors.
"We’d like to say a huge thank you to all our guests for their loyalty and support over the years – it’s been a pleasure to be part of the Colchester community.”
