Fisherman’s Tavern renovations to be decided

The Fisherman's Tavern.
The Fisherman's Tavern.

The owners of a landmark Broughty Ferry pub have submitted plans for a new bar and women’s toilets.

Dundee City Council’s development management committee will meet next Monday to rule on the proposed internal alterations to the Fisherman’s Tavern on Fort Street.

The public house, which has been a Ferry fixture since 1872, hosts the annual Ron Bonar beer festival in aid of the RNLI and is a popular haunt for musicians, locals and tourists.

The proposals submitted to the council detail a new gantry, bar and female toilet in the  category C listed building.

The outside of the property would remain unchanged.

The application has been submitted in the name of Anthony Pinkerton of Belhaven Greene King, the brewery which owns the pub.

The bid, which was registered in August, has satisfied the conditions of the city development plan, received no letters of objection and has been recommended for approval by council officers.

The existing lounge area.

The alterations to the ground floor of the building – which currently houses toilets for both sexes and a bar and snug area – would involve changing the position of some internal doors, new fixed seating in the restaurant and lounge bar, the removal of the existing bar, and the installation of a new gantry and front counter.

Removing the existing servery bar in the lounge area would free up space for a new ladies toilet.

Council officers said there were no internal features of architectural or historic interest on the ground floor which would be damaged as a result of replacing the old bar counter.

A new sign for the front of the building has also been submitted for approval. It features a large Belhaven logo and a drawing of a hat-wearing fisherman.

The proposed design of the signage which will hang above the pub’s front door.

The annual RNLI fundraising festival held in the hotel has generated more than £150,000 for the organisation over the course of the last 18 years.

Brewers Belhaven bought the beloved Broughty Ferry bar in 2007 and pledged to retain its revered old-time aesthetic.
