Just back: Gas......and the Rose and Crown

[KFISCHER]

I didn't mean it the way it sounds.

I just wanted to pass along two notes FYI


1) The price of gas around WDW last week was 1.95. Where I live, it's 2.15

2) Major disappointment: The Rose and Crown Pub is closed for refurbishment.

 

[Stepharoonie!]

Yup, gas isn't too bad in this area...and I mean that because another city not too far from here is over the $2 mark now.

Do you know how long it will be closed for?

I checked in on this thread to see what you ate at the rose and crown that gave you such gas!

 

[KFISCHER]

There was no indication I saw, heard as to how long it'll be closed.

With temps in the 90's, it was not a happy sight to see it shut down.

Just an FYI to those of you who may not know the difference: Yes, the Pub is currently closed for rehab, but the restaurant is still open.

It should be noted that only the pub portion is closed, being refurbished and spruicing up the restrooms. The dining room and outdoor seating area are still open, and Pam Brody has a temporary post in the outdoor seating area.

Also, part of the reason gas is so relatively inexpensive (har!) on property now is because Hess now runs the stations. Exxon consistently had prices that were at least 25 cents higher than elsewhere, and were they still around, the price for regular unleaded now would be in the $2.15 range. (also the employees are nicer and the interiors are cleaner.)
