Hi everyone,The location is correct. The coffee bar was on the ground floor. Hernando's was a night club/discotheque situated above, on the first and second floors. The owner was called Michael Brash who ran both businesses for years. In the late sixties I was a regular at Hernando's. It was a great place to go and I never saw any trouble there. Ian.

I remember quite vividly the sign for this place but was never tempted to visit.I must have been reasonbly young at that time and I think I was put off by a song-can't remember the singer.I know a dark secluded placeA place where no one knows your faceA glass of wine - a wild embraceIt's called Hernandos Hideaway (OLAY?)

Seems to be out of correct thread but in answer to the question "when was the new YEP building opened", it was 1970 by Prince Charles.
