Every Wednesday morning, the Woolly Club takes over our Pool Bar side, and honestly, what a lovely bunch they are! 🥰

What starts with a cuppa, a bit of knitting and a good old natter often turns into the majority staying on for lunch, too! ☕🍽️

It’s so lovely to see a community coming together, catching up, sharing a laugh and making sure nobody feels alone. That’s what a proper community pub is all about! ❤️

A warm welcome, friendly faces and always someone to have a chat with. Whether you come to knit, natter or simply enjoy a cuppa, there’s always a place for you here.

Because sometimes, it’s not just about the knitting… it’s about the company. 🧶❤️

WHAT A VERYYYY BUSY SUNDAY! 😮‍💨😂❤️

Well… you lot clearly decided to keep us on our toes today! 🤣🔥 WHAT A DAY!

A MASSIVE thank you to everyone who came down and kept us busy once again. We love seeing you all, even if you did have us running around like headless chickens! 🐔😂❤️

We’re still learning, growing and figuring things out as we go, so thank you for bearing with us while we continue to improve. We know we’re not perfect (yet 😉), but we promise we’re trying our absolute best!

Your support means more than you know, and the fact that you keep coming back makes all the hard work worthwhile. 🫶🏼

Now, if you could all just give us a little warning before you descend on us like that again… that would be lovely. 🤣🤣 ONLY JOKING… sort of! 👀😂

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! ❤️ Now let us put our feet up for approximately 5 minutes before we do it all again! 😂🍻

🍽️ Well, well, well… look who’s back! SUNDAY LUNCH! 😂❤️

After another busy week at The Heron, you lot know the drill… time to put your feet up, let someone else do the cooking and tackle a proper Sunday roast! 🤤🍻

👀 We’ve only got 3 tables left for THIS Sunday, so if you’re planning on joining us, don’t leave it until the last minute and then give us those puppy dog eyes when we’re full! 😂😉

🍴 Food served 12pm–4pm

🎱 Fancy a change of scenery? Our Pool Bar will also be open for food bookings between 12:30pm and 1pm!

Roast dinners, a few drinks and a good old natter… and absolutely no washing up at home. Sounds like a win to us! 🤣❤️

📞 Give us a shout to book your table, you lovely lot. We’ll get the roasts on, and you can leave the cooking disasters to another day! 😉🍽️

See you All Tomorrow ❤️
