If Secret Santa, Black Friday and Elf on the Shelf already feel like three modern festive rituals too many, be warned – there is a new Christmas activity gaining traction in a street near you this year - the 12 pubs of Christmas! read more...
Whilst we know you won't visit all 12 (geographically challenging), here are some suggestions where you can join in the festive cheer! Enjoy, we wish you a very Merry Christmas!
Norwich, Norfolk, NR2
The Ten Bells has been open since the 1700's and is without doubt an established part of Norwich, a city well known for its pubs, and with the new management and recent refurbishments it has been given a new lease of life.
Winsley, Bradford-on-Avon, BA15
The philosphy at The Seven Stars is quite straightforward, simple yet effective. With a hard working, friendly team, wonderful locally sourced produce and a great selection of beers, wine and spirits
Preston, Lancashire, PR1
This imposing grade II listed building stood empty for several years and was last occupied by the TSB, which moved into the premises in the early 1990s. Until then, it had been occupied by the Preston Savings Bank.
Oxford, OX1
Next door but one to these premises is Oxford University’s history faculty, originally the city’s High School for Boys. The comic actor Ronnie Barker was a former pupil and later one of the Two Ronnies. Probably their best-known sketch was ‘Four Candles’.
