Whether you’re catching up with friends, rounding up the family, or just making the most of the extra day off, there’s no better place to be. Sip on 2 for £12 Aperol Spritz, explore our great selection of beers and wines, and soak up the atmosphere all weekend long.

If the sun’s shining, even better – it’s the perfect excuse to grab a drink and settle in. Good vibes, great drinks, and plenty of reasons to stay for one more…

JUST 2 DAYS TO GO. Have you missed us as much as we've missed you?

We really can't wait to welcome everyone old and new into the pub from Tuesday. We have some of your favourites lined up to keep you entertained all week. We've missed the pub life, staff and all our friends, can't wait for Tuesday now 😘

Only days to go now before the big reveal as we open our doors back up again Tuesday. Here's another little sneaky look 👀😉

🎉They are back🎉 EVERY THURSDAY IN AUGUST.... Our summer raves are back, in the garden, under the tent. No need to book, just come along. Special guest appearances every week, just check the poster to see who will be coming to see your little people. This is a free event, so we do ask that no food or drink is bought onto the premises. Kids eat for £1.00 with every main meal purchased. ‼️All children must be supervised by parents at all times.‼️ See you all soon xx

We're doing it again for the 3rd year, with a 1 - 1 score hanging over us. Will we take the lead? This year we are raising for Mind Aid, all enrty fees and raffle profit will go to the charity. Playing at Treetops School, arrive from 12pm for kick off at 12.30pm. Spectators are more than welcome. If you would like to represent the pub, all you have to do is pop in and leave your name and £5 with staff behind the bar before the day. Tops supplied, you need white shorts, socks and don't forget your boots and shin pads. Join us afterwards at the pub for a bbq and party in the garden.

Just over a week to go before we reopen. Here's a little look at some more colours we've got going on 😎

Sorry its taken so long to post this! As you can see, a great time was had by all last Saturday celebrating our 7th anniversary of being at the pub. Our carpark party is getting bigger and busier every year, how am i going to make it bigger next year? This is one of my proudest events, seeing all the community come together having fun, and raising money for much needed causes. This year you all managed to raise a staggering £500 on the day for Mind Aid 🙌 I've had lots of videos and photos sent in to me as I got zero! This was one of the best that captured almost everyone. Just one last thing, to thank everyone involved on the day who put their time in and helped the day to be a huge success, and to thank everyone who joined us for the day, truly overwhelming support over and over again. So thank you all from the bottom of our hearts. #SonsofSouthpaw# #LeonC# #LittleLegsBuses# #BiffoFoster# #Staff&Family#

New colours to brighten the pub up 😍

Now this looks like it could be fun 😁 No, I'm not asking for a sequel to Ghost. 🤣🤣 Would you be interested if I booked in a night of Pottery at The Ship?
