Two further pubs in Herefordshire have confirmed that they will be reopening their beer gardens from 12th April. Both the Cock of Tupsley and King Charles II pubs that are owned by Marston’s have confirmed that they will be reopening.

From Marston’s:

We’re excited to announce that we’ll reopen almost 70% of our pubs in England from the 12th April, in line with the Government’s roadmap out of lockdown. Whilst we cannot open our whole estate just yet or welcome guests inside, we look forward to providing alfresco hospitality across over 600 of our pubs. 

We know our guests, like us, eagerly await the time when all pubs can reopen, and we’ll provide more details about when our Welsh and Scottish sites can welcome back guests as soon as we have the final, official details.

Whilst our pubs have been closed, we’ve invested in and adapted many of our outdoor spaces and pub gardens to enhance existing areas in readiness for when we can reopen. We have our fingers crossed for blue sky and sunny spells, but we all know the British weather, so as well as packing sunscreen and sunglasses it may be worth bringing an umbrella and jacket too!

We know how much our guests have missed visiting their pub and our teams are busy getting things ready behind the scenes. We’ll have a range of food and drink options available and strict hygiene measures will continue to be implemented across all our sites. Further details about our ‘Makes Sense’ safety campaign can be found on each pub’s website.

Our pubs help bring communities together, they’re a place where strangers become friends, families reunite, and celebrations are enjoyed. We’ve all missed these moments and we’ll all enjoy them even more when we can experience them again.

You can book a table in advance if you’d prefer via each pub’s website, or of course just pop along. 

We can’t wait to welcome you back!
