“It’s going to be huge, a first of its kind in the area,” Curtis says.

“We’re expecting to be packed out, we’ve got a fair few tables booked, the sports bar is taking a fair few bookings as well.”

Curtis says it is great to see patrons returning to pubs and support the hospitality industry, which is a stark contrast to the past COVID-19 challenges.

“It brings the morale up, everything easing back to normality is good for everyone,” he says.
