Ignorant Bliss Ltd

Ignorant Bliss Ltd The Traditional Pub with a Modern Personality The Malt Shovel is dedicated to passion and quality.
(532)

With 6 hand pulls serving the best of British beer and cider at all times (there are always at least 2 local breweries represented) it is Horsham's spiritual home for real Ale and Cider. Couple this with our quality house spirits and wines and our extensive back bar selection (name another Sussex pub with 13 different tequilas!) and there is always something to please even the most discerning palate. This passion for quality extends into 'Red Beard's Pizza Menu', all freshly prepared and cooked to order in our stone base oven. The Malt Shovel Loves it's music, there is recorded music at all times, Open Mic Nights twice a month, Live bands every Saturday (they're as fussy about choosing the bands as they are the products!) and other music events throughout the year. All of this is driven by Sam, Marie-Clare and their excellent staff who are always pleased to see you and to make the most of your visit.

I’ve been a bit rubbish with sharing this information, that’s mostly because I’m rubbish at keeping social media up to date, but that’s no surprise to anyone. So here are the next 3 dates for the Sit and Sip Open Mic night (the first one’s tonight 🤦‍♂️). I would love to see you there, tell a friend. Love ya xx

Incase you fancied it, The Guvnors are blasting their 90's and 00's Grunge and Rock covers in The Rock, East Street, this evening. Live and Loud from 8.30pm. Would be lovely to see some friendly faces there. That is if your ears have the survived the EPIC show that 'The Rattlebacks' put on last night at The Fermentarium! We were blown away by the show that they put on, and reckon that Alex (new frontman) knocked it out of the park! Also loved the support from 'Delerium, Delerium', there's an obvious bias (it being our son and his cousin in the band), but if youngsters are making music that sounds like that, we're here for it! See you at the bar x

Not the "Happy New Year" post that I would like to be making. We do sincerely wish you all a Happy New Year, but do also have to share the sad news of Bub's passing. Bubs was a larger than life character, often divisive, but always big hearted. He played at The Malt Shovel many times, and always brought passion and a great love of music. He often came in to support other bands, even when health issues made it hard to do so. He was a part of the music scene for decades, and played with pretty much all the local legends. I shall miss him. I shall miss putting him in his place, I shall miss hearing his back handed compliments through criticism, I shall miss his endless love of music, I shall miss his smiling face. Love you Bubs. Rest in loud endless music mate x

Hi all, long time no see. Just a quick message to tell you that we love you all, we're still here and, yes, we are looking for a new site. As you may have noticed, we have changed to page name to the company that runs all our bars. We will use these socials to keep you up to date with any developments in the future. Thank you all for your love and ongoing support. To reassure you, MC, the kids and I are all fine and well. Love you all, see you at....... a bar...... somewhere....?
