Our World Cup Wall Chart is now available to download for free through the link in the comments. 🍻

There's no better place to watch a match than your local, where the atmosphere is electric, the community comes together, and there's a fantastic range of beers to enjoy.

However, the UK ranks among the highest in Europe for beer duty, with competitors across Europe paying a fraction of that rate.

This summer, as the nation gathers in locals up and down the country, we're calling on the Government to back British pubs and bring beer duty in line with our European neighbours. ⚽

It’s half term, so why not treat your kids to a meal from our Little Shepherds menu? 😋

Our menu includes tasty dishes, an A4 activity sheet and, for every two-course meal purchased, we'll donate 50p to @airambulancekss.

Cheers to 30 years 🎉

Today we’re raising a glass to Mary, who’s celebrating an incredible 30 years as part of the family.
Mary joined us back in 1996 as a Payroll Clerk, in the days of posted timesheets and the occasional last-minute fax machine panic.

Over the last three decades, she has been a huge part of the evolution of our payroll, helping shape systems, support teams, and keep everything running smoothly with her incredible knowledge and dedication.

Mary, thank you for everything you do.
