As many of you know, our beloved owner, Mr. Karl Routledge-Wilson, sadly passed away on October 22nd. Karl was an extraordinary man who touched the lives of so many, and he will be deeply missed.

To honour him and take some time to process this profound loss, we decided to close the bar for a short period. We are grateful to share that we are ready to reopen tomorrow from 17:00.

In memory of Karl, we will be raising a glass at 17:00 to celebrate his life, and we would love for his friends to join us in remembering him.

With love,
The Pillar Box Team.
