The Cockney Rebel, the British pub that used to pull pints on Fourth Street N in St. Petersburg, soon will replace the recently closed Annie Moore's. Owners Taina and Terry Brabent were looking for something new when they saw that Annie Moore's was available. They quickly signed a lease and are busily cleaning up the building at 6395 Gulf Blvd. with plans toopen in early March. The new site will mimic the old with a menu that includes shepherd's pie, fish and chips, and ploughman's lunch.

Two hotel properties are on the market

Two hotel properties are on the market, including a nearly completed Country Inn. Owner Ravi Patel said he built the 73-room hotel at 8050 U.S. 19, across from Wal-Mart, with a plan to sell it. Construction started in May 2007, and doors should open in May. The asking price is $9-million. Patel is also selling a 1.73-acre plot to the north that has approval for a 71-room hotel at U.S. 19 and 110th Avenue. That land is going for $1.65-million.
