Chris Willcocks, general manager of The Bakers Arms said today (April 24): “It’s been so exciting to see the renovations take shape and the pub transform, but we’ve missed our guests and we can’t wait to welcome people back through our doors to experience a new and improved offering across the board.

“With summer just around the corner and the weather getting warmer, there’s never been a better time to enjoy premium al fresco dining from our new menu on our fantastic garden terrace. We have no doubt it’ll be a hugely popular with our guests.”
