A message from Jack McEntee, Director of the Happy Wolf Company:

‘Dear lovely customers,
It has now been almost two months since we opened the Cherington, would you believe it.
First & foremost, we want to thank you for your fantastic support in the last few weeks as we try to get this wonderful pub buzzing again. I felt it important to update you on how it’s been going and what our plans are going forward.
The last 2 months have proven testing when it comes to staff, namely kitchen staff. Michael, our head chef, is a supreme talent but it has taken time to get the rest of the team trained up, which is why you haven’t seen any menu changes since we opened. We are also actively searching for a sous chef to support him and when this happens, we can look at improving our offering, with more specials, midweek themed nights, opening for food 7 days per week, perhaps breakfast and plenty more – we have simply started slow so there is plenty of room to build. We are very lucky to have the chef team that we have and the boys are working tirelessly to serve you delicious dishes!
We have been hearing some opinions which we are planning to address. Our Mid-Summer menu launches on Saturday 20th July and we have taken your opinions on board, with a lighter, more ’Summery’ menu on the way. We are also offering for children 12 and under to eat for £1 during the Summer holidays, during midweek days.
A word for Mat, our landlord, alongside his wonderful team. The front of house team are really enjoying looking after you all and I hope you agree that Mat is really settling into his role and leading the team to success.
Finally, we are excited to unveil ‘CherryFest’! Taking place over the weekend of 23rd-25th August, we will be hosting an event for families and friends to enjoy live music, outdoor food, market stalls, a quiz, a raffle & perhaps even a Tug-of-War! We’d love your support and if anybody wants a market stall, please do get in touch.
It really has been a pleasure looking after your pub so far. We will continue to move forward, these things are often best done slowly so we can ensure we get every detail right and ensure we are here for years to come.
Thanks again for your support,
Jack McEntee
Director
Happy Wolf Pub Company Ltd’

Cannot commend Jack and his team enough. The Cherington is fabulous! I live in the village and my son and future daughter in law live and work in London, and have pretty sophisticated tastes! We have now had four Sunday lunches at the pub, – all of which were excellent, and one dinner, when I can honestly say I had the best fish and chips I have tasted for years. The espresso martinis are excellent and the flat white martini is out of this world! Well done to all of you!
