✏️🍺 Pints & Ponytails – Back to School Edition is HERE! 🎀

School and nursery mornings are coming… and if the thought of tackling ponytails and plaits fills you with dread, we’ve got you!

Join us on Saturday 8th August for a relaxed, fun workshop where you’ll learn super cute, quick hairstyles that will make those busy mornings just a little bit easier.

Meet other dads, have a laugh, enjoy a drink, and leave with the confidence to create hairstyles your little ones will love.

Let’s be honest… they still probably won’t put their shoes on when you ask them 😅… but at least they’ll have fabulous hair!

✨ We’ve opened up a few extra spaces due to demand, so if you’ve been thinking about it, now’s your chance.

🎟️ Book your tickets here:

🤍 Our little play space has had a little refresh! 🤍

We’ve been busy giving our play area a new layout to make it even more inviting for little ones to explore while you sit back and enjoy a proper coffee. ☕️✨

We’ve rearranged the space, added a new slide, and created even more room for imaginative play with our much-loved wooden café, role play kitchen, soft play and ball pit.

It’s the perfect spot to meet a friend, enjoy some lunch or cake, and let the little ones burn off some energy in a cosy, relaxed environment.

If you haven’t visited us in a while, now’s the perfect excuse! We’d love to see what you think of the new setup. 🤎

📍 Pop in this week, grab your favourite drink and let the little ones play while you enjoy a coffee that’s actually still hot!

✨ What if there was a course that taught teens all the things school doesn’t? ✨

We’re thinking about creating something a little different… a fun, relaxed course designed to help teenagers feel more confident about “real life.”

We’re talking things like:
💷 Money management & budgeting
📄 Understanding payslips, tax & National Insurance
🏠 Bills, rent, mortgages & utilities
🚗 Buying and looking after a car
🩹 Basic first aid
🔧 Simple DIY skills like changing a fuse, putting up shelves & using basic tools
📑 Understanding employment contracts & workplace rights
💻 Online safety, scams & protecting yourself from fraud
🏦 Banking, credit scores & borrowing responsibly
🧰 Everyday practical life skills

We have so many ideas, but we’d love to hear from you.

💭 What do you wish someone had taught you before adulthood?
💭 What skills would you love your teen to learn?
💭 Is this something your teenager would be interested in?

Drop your ideas in the comments 👇 We’d love to build a course that genuinely prepares young people for the real world.
