The bar will open as The Old Bank in the former HSBC/Midland Bank building in Marine Road Central, after a 'soft opening' on Thursday evening.

Owners Melanie Percival and Anthony Gregson – who also run a successful training company, Hospitality Training Solutions – promise a daily Happy Hour as well as weekly live music.

The building was most recently home to Grandma's Puppet Shop, which has moved to Pedder Street.

HSBC closed in 2015 after the building was home to a bank for 127 years.
