Its legal, almost!
Hello All,
So, since we've had the keys its been a crazy time! Its SO exciting to feel The Upton starting to come back to life and to be part of the journey to revitalize this amazing pub. We’ve been super busy getting to grips with actioning our super-long To Do list. We've finalised our colour schemes and are continuing the repainting and making key decisions on bar carpet, toilet flooring and blinds. And of course there are lashings of good old fashion tidying up and hard work to do!
The cellar installation is planned for later next week; we're keen to make sure that our drinks offer is top notch both in quality and range. Plans to work on the kitchen are afoot; this naturally being a crucial element in our offering and how we intend to make The Upton a destination for quality food.
We're looking at the exterior too of course; repairs and tiding up as well as introducing flowers into new hanging baskets and borders. We certainly want to put our best face on! We have had a huge number of emails of support offering good wishes and help. Thank you to all of you! Honestly, its been a little overwhelming and we're a bit on the back foot trying to reply to everyone. But will get there! It's heartening to have met so many of you in person who are genuinely pleased to know that The Upton will reopen, and that we have a commitment to providing quality countryside pub hospitality for locals and visitors alike.
Here's a little teaser from our newly decorated lounge area, what do you think??
Best wishes
