🏇🍺 And just like that… the first race weekend of the season is officially down the hatch!

Blessed with unreal sunshine, packed gardens, flowing pints and our very first race weekend in our beautifully refurbished pub — we’d say it’s been a barrel of a weekend 😉

Judging by the mountain of empty kegs, we’ve managed to keep you all well hydrated 😅🍻

A huge thank you to our incredible staff for powering through the heat, and to all our loyal regulars, familiar faces and new visitors who stopped by to see us at The Pig & Whistle this weekend ☀️

The races may be over, but the beer’s still cold and the good times are still pouring — so come and join us for drinks, food and a well-earned sit in the sunshine 🍺🌿

We love bringing something a bit different to the village plus good food, good beer, good atmosphere and a beer garden full of happy people pretending they’ll “just have one.”

Over the last few years our pop-up food nights have gone down an absolute treat and now we’re looking for fresh traders to help keep the Pig fed and the Whistle blowing all summer long.

Whether you’re flipping burgers, firing pizzas, folding tacos or serving something completely unique, we’d love to hear from you.

What’s on offer?
🍺 Busy village pub with a cracking beer garden
🌞 Outdoor bar area for service
👨‍🍳 Potential use of our kitchen OR your own setup outside
📅 Opportunity for one-off pop-ups or regular summer dates
🕰️ Mondays & Tuesdays when our kitchen is closed.

The boring but important bits:
✔️ Food hygiene/safety certifications required
✔️ Own insurance/equipment if operating externally
✔️ No rear vehicle access to the beer garden area
