Favourite local heritage pub, the Somerset & Dorset, will be unveiling its brand-new look following a six-figure investment from award winning Craft Union Pub Company.
The sea-side pub is based in Burnham-on-Sea in Somerset and will reopen its door on 25th January following a transformative £200,000 investment. The well-loved pub will benefit from a refreshed interior look, which includes the installation of Sky and TNT sports as well as a new dartboard. In addition, the investment has created several new jobs at the venue, boosting the local economy and bringing a fresh new feel to the pub.
The iconic Burnham-on-Sea venue is steeped in history and dates back to 1858. In more recent history, the pub as we know it was named after the railway company with the same moniker and has grown from strength to strength as a community favourite ever since.
Well-seasoned publicans, Ricky and Steven, who have been running community pubs and late-night venues across the UK for almost 30 years are excited to become the pub’s new operators.
The pair commented: “After viewing many pubs in our quest for a new venture, the Somerset & Dorset became the clear winner for us due to its sea-side location and the brilliant community feel. We are excited to welcome and get to know our locals and we hope they are impressed by the improvements we’ve implemented at the pub. We have worked in the industry for almost three decades and have so many ideas and events that we can’t wait to bring to our community.”
The pub’s exciting weekly events agenda includes free pool Mondays, Bingo Wednesdays and a meat raffle on Fridays. Karaoke, quiz nights, Raceday bets and sports viewing are also weekly staples that locals can look forward to.
Operators Ricky and Steven warmly welcome all customers to the pub’s re-opening on Thursday 25th January as well as the official launch parties on Saturday 3rdand Sunday 4th February.
