It is with a very heavy heart that I share the news that The Ridgeway is now permanently closed under my ownership.
For the past seven years, this pub has been so much more than just a business to me — it has been a home. A place filled with laughter, stories, friendships, celebrations, and even the occasional tear. None of that would have been possible without each and every one of you.
To all our customers, old and new, thank you for your loyalty, your kindness, and your incredible support. Many of you have become true friends, and I will always be grateful for the memories we’ve created together.
While this chapter comes to an end for me, I wish The Ridgeway Pub nothing but success and happiness in the future. I look forward to walking back through the doors one day as a customer, raising a glass, and remembering the good times.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you all.
Tom.
