spring Opening conditions
Please register yourself and any guests here each time you visit The New Inn. Thank you.
It will come as no surprise to anyone that we have had to make certain adjustments in order to trade safely and conform to new Government guidelines.
Since June we’ve been very busy…
- Creating more space in the garden (goodbye garage!)
- Erecting screens in the bar (featuring our beloved Pumpkin)
- Reorganising the space and furniture
- Doing new cleaning schedules and risk assessments (download HERE, if interested!)
- Training our heroic staff to keep you safe and well-tended with the best beers that money can buy
Many of these measures were originally guidelines from the Government in June 2020, however new regulations come into force 17th May 2021, and are legally binding.
Everyone’s safety is of paramount importance, so here’s how we need to operate for the foreseeable future
- We are required to collect names and contact details of all customers for NHS Test and Trace purposes; A poster of the NHS app is displayed as you come into the pub, on the bar screen. There will also be the NHS app on every table. This can be downloaded on your phone. Alternatively you can sign in through the adjacent form. Registration is now obligatory for every member in a group, or a customer coming in on their own. All personal data will be destroyed after 21 days, unless you opt to stay on our database. More information here (gov.uk site)
- There is no more table service. Customers may now come and order drinks at the bar.
- We can take card payments AND CASH, so don’t worry!
- It is optional for customers and bar staff to wear masks on entering the main bar .
- Finally, there is no booking anymore, but we hope that with the increased space, we will be able to accommodate everyone who turns up.
Thank you for your understanding and co-operation!
