Winter Focus: Charles Weston

The wind and rain sure is biting, but if you can be brave enough to throw on your chunky knits and pop down, the friendly crew at Charles Weston will take care of you.

Slump into a big squishy couch next to the roasting open fire and you'll be too snug to fathom going anywhere else. Why not save cooking and indulge in a comforting pub meal or weekly special?

If you're feeling playful take your pick of arcade & pinball machines, ping pong or pool table, and of course quirky board games to help unwind.

Or relax with some live tunes — there are stunning residencies and collaboration projects weekly. And on Friday the volume gets turned right up with Beer O'Clock. Between 6-9pm you pay just the time for pints of Mountain Goat! Feel free to join in on some casual pub bingo hosted by Trev and Sparx at the bar itself.

So don't regret staying home. Your electric blanket and Netflix will still be there when you get back.
