Not too long ago, The Twisted Pepper announced it was closing its doors.
Since then there has been plenty of speculation… Would it still be a club? Would Bodytonic sell the premises? Would anyone ever dance in there again?
So it transpires that a new bar called Wigwam will be taking its place at 54 Middle Abbey Street. Food will now be served on the premises with Boxcutter Barbers and Vice remaining as part of the establishment too.

Wigwam will be a late bar on Fridays and Saturdays, but will run on the same model as the Bernard Shaw, Sunday to Thursday with last orders at 11.30pm. Food will be daily from 11am-11pm.
From the looks of it there will be a soft launch at some stage next week followed by Sim Simma returning to its rightful home on Friday 20 November.
