A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us throughout the World Cup! 🦁⚽️🍻
From the opening game to the semi-final, the pub was packed with incredible support, plenty of singing, cheering (and a few nervous moments!), and we couldn't have asked for a better atmosphere.
It wasn't the ending we were all hoping for, but what a journey it was. Thank you for choosing to spend it with us and for making every match day so special.
The World Cup may be over, but don't worry... we're not slowing down! We've got plenty of exciting events, live music, quizzes, food, and much more coming your way over the next few weeks, so keep an eye on our socials.

A huge thank you to everyone who came down to the pub to cheer on the Three Lions with us! The atmosphere was incredible from start to finish, and it wouldn't have been the same without all of you singing, cheering, and backing England together. 🍻⚽
A very special shout-out goes to our amazing manageress, Bobbi, who took on the late-night (and early morning!) shift to make sure everyone was looked after. We couldn't do it without your hard work and dedication – thank you! 🌟👏
