Tonight was a welcome return to The Tollemache Arms. The last time I was here was in June 2019, and since then, it’s had a makeover through a crowdfunding campaign where they smashed their target of raising 30k by amassing 33k in just 4 days!
We picked up Bev & Jules for 7pm and headed for The Tolly (as it’s known locally). On arrival, their large car-park was packed, meaning the Pub was too! We squeezed up to the Bar and after ordering drinks, we were soon shown our table.
They certainly seem to be eating early around these parts – the Restaurant was packed! Service was swift, though, and we were soon looking through their menu. Straightforward rather than inspiring would be a good description of tonight’s offerings, and it all looked tasty.
It was great to see a Pub with so much atmosphere, and it was clear it was a popular choice. For me though, it was hard to work out where the money raised had been invested – everything looked the same (and that’s a compliment) as it has always done. Nice too, that the staff were all in ‘Tolly Livery’! 🙂
What a great way to spend a warm(ish) Summer’s evening! 👍🙂. We dropped B&J back at their and stayed up until 10.15pm! (Party Animals, ehh????? 😉😎)
I got into blogging quite late in life, not publishing my first post until 2004 – well into my 40s! My lifelong love of technology and communication (in all its forms), together with a fondness for the art of writing seemed to be the perfect combination to contribute a few words to the online community. But I’m no Samuel Pepys! If you’re looking for deep and meaningful comments on a variety of subjects, then you’ve arrived at the wrong site! I only pen for pleasure! On average, my posts appear about twice per month, covering family & friends, cinema visits, eating out, holiday experiences and techy stuff. Oh, and as this is my hobby, there are no sponsored links nor adverts here – it’s all done with love!
I hope you find it enjoyable, interesting and occasionally, even helpful!
