Regional Manager's Thoughts
This is a fantastic pub with a great daytime trade that caters to all. It would suit many types of operators, and it will be interesting to hear what people feel they can do for the pub and their customers without impacting the trade that currently exists. Lots of opportunity for evening, low and no-cost events as well.
