THE NAME of a new bar and grill moving into a former city centre pub has potentially been revealed.
Aurora Bar and Grill could be coming to 18 Foregate Street, which was formerly The Postal Order pub owned by Wetherspoons.
Companies House shows that Aurora Bar and Grill Ltd at the former Wetherspoons pub was incorporated on Tuesday, January 31.
There is still no confirmed opening date for the new bar and grill.

The city's Wetherspoons pub went up for sale by Savills Estate agency in the summer of last year.
The Postal Order announced its 'last orders' on Sunday, January 8.
The following day workers had already moved in and a number of boxes full of items and pieces of wood were laid out on the pub floor.
On the front of the building, a large sign remains which reads 'Opening Soon', 'Bar and Grill' and 'Under New Management'. However, the sign does not show which company will run it.

In 1997, the Postal Order first opened and has been part of the city for the past 25 years.
The Postal Order's name was inspired by its previous use as a post office dating from the 1880s.
By the 1940s, the historic building also housed the city’s telephone exchange
Wetherspoons still has The Crown in Worcester city centre on Broad Street.
