WETHERSPOON have officially revealed the name and opening date for its newest pub in Somerset.
The discount pub chain will be opening a second pub location in the city of Bath, inside a building which most recently housed a Revolution nightclub.
The former nightclub shut in November 2024, with staff left 'heartbroken' by the news of the permanent closure.

A spokesperson for Revolution spoke via social media at the time of the closure: "Revolution Bath will sadly be closing its doors on the 2nd November. Our team is absolutely heartbroken and we want to thank you so much for partying with us."
Customers were then invited to a farewell Halloween-themed party on November 2.
Named 'The Old Post Office', the new Wetherspoon pub is set to open in its place this year at the York Buildings on Tuesday, March 3.
The move to open this new south west pub comes as a business decision from the chain to open 12 pubs across the UK and Spain before July. This includes the chain's first-ever Wetherspoon outside of the UK, with lovers of the pub chain able to drink there at Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport from February 2026.
Initial planning permission documents stated that the chain wanted to open its new Bath pub from 7am.
A planning document from there applicant states: "Given the site has operated until the early hours of the morning with no complaints raised, it is considered that the earlier opening of the premises would not have a negative impact on the amenity of neighbouring occupants, particularly 7am is a less sensitive time than the consented closing time of the venue."
However, it has since been confirmed that the pub will open from 8am every morning.
It may not be the only new Wetherspoon pub opening in the county, though, as plans were revealed for a new pub in Burnham-On-Sea.
In November 2025, Haven announced that there would be a £9 million investment in new JD Wetherspoons pubs in their holiday parks. They stated that there would be new pubs coming to their parks in Cala Gran, Hopton, Lakeland and Riviere Sands as part of their £14 million investment into food and drink venues.
