The Little Rose’s official Grand Opening Night takes place at 8pm this Saturday 30th August. Come and meet the new managers, Neil and Sue. People from the current owners, Wrenbridge, will also be at the pub to meet everybody. You’ll also be able to see the brand new food menu and new real ale & beer, now that the pub is a proper Freehouse and no longer anything to do with Greene King. You can also see what you think about the pub’s new decoration.
Then on Friday September 12th the Pub will host Quiz Night as part of the Village Scarecrow Festival. The quiz starts at 8.30pm. Anybody can enter a team of 6 on the night. Entrance fee is £20 per team which includes a buffet, and there’ll be cash prizes.
The Little Rose Support Group has successfully registered the pub as what’s known as an Asset of Community Value, officially making it a key part of the village and giving it some protection in the future. Wrenbridge, the pub’s new owners, want to build two houses on part of the pub garden. If you want to find out why, and also want to be kept fully upto date with developments at the Little Rose and help protect its long term future as the village’s only pub, then please email Keith: keith@murraysouthwell.plus.com The group is making contingency plans for the community to buy the pub just in case it’s put up for sale again, email Keith if you want to be involved.
Good luck to Neil and Sue, wishing them every success in running Haslingfields ONLY pub..Will DEFINATELY pop in when back from holiday
Well done Neil & Sue for taking on the challenge. We will be back soon and trying the menu.
Steve & Jessica
Will there be any real cider? How about something sourced locally like Pickled Pig (Stretham) or Cam Valley Orchards (Meldreth), or if from further afield maybe Whin Hill (Wells-next-the-sea) or Gwynt y Ddraig (Pontypridd). Preferably in a cider tub or bag-in-box rather than bottled or carbonated draught.
