07.01.2022 Due to the Covid 19 virus mayhem, I feel that I must close the Main Bar for a couple of weeks at least. I was really looking forward to seeing the bands this weekend but I'm sure we can reschedule. It was a shock this morning when I was confronted with the bare shelves in the supermarkets . I will use this time productively to catch up with jobs around the Bar and make sure it's ready for our return. Thank you to all of my staff, customers and friends. Please stay safe and happy. Glenn

06.01.2022 Getting ready to open next Wednesday 11th Nov. from 6.00 Our regular evenings will initially be Wed- Sat from 6.00 and we will commence afternoons on Friday and Saturday soon. Still a lot to prepare but it's exciting seeing it finally coming together with lots of local wines, beers and produce rolling in. Booking enquiries to [email protected]

05.01.2022 I'm enjoying experimenting with my bread ratios. These ones are Potato and Pumpkin with olives and cheese in a couple. I'm still looking for staff to reopen, but it's a bit up in the air with lockdown restrictions etc.

03.01.2022 Just letting people know that I'll be opening later tonight,(Saturday 14th) I won't be back in town until around 9.00 after a special catch-up with friends. Apologies for any disappointment, thank you, Glenn.

02.01.2022 A bit of progress, on a few levels, literally! Kitchen garden is next.!

01.01.2022 Large Staff pizza gives us all a couple of slices each. I’m glad they all enjoy some Gorgonzola!

01.01.2022 One of the surplus tables from inside becoming the Bar top in the back bar. I'm busy getting ready to return better than ever.
