Bridgewater's was the indoor one, in the SW corner of the building. Small footprint (still vacant) bar and some hightops. Clock on the wall intentionally 10min fast. Solid rotating selection of beers, and surprisingly very good food. Perfect third space - great spot for a cheeky pint, or to kill time if your train was delayed. No surprise that it didn't survive the decrease in regional rail commuting though.

Yea, they were closed A LOT. For seemingly no reason. If it was raining they were closed more than less. It was quite odd. Probably bad mgmt.

Wow, I definitely never noticed that pre-pandemic.

I'm thinking like 2018-2019. I needed a drink after work more than a few times and they dropped the ball way more than once.

I think I read somewhere that the tunnel from the subway to the train station came up underneath bridgewaters.
