🇦🇺 She’s off down under!

It’s time to say goodbye (for now 👀) to our Sophie as she swaps The Five Bells for her travels around Australia🦘

She might be small enough to lose behind the bar, but once you’ve actually spotted her, she’s pretty hard to forget! Sassy, bubbly, hilarious, loves a Hugo Spritz and is always up for a laugh — Soph has been a huge part of The Bells and it definitely won’t be the same without her😭

Soph, you'll be massively missed by all of us… mostly Max, but we won’t hold that against him this once🤗

We’ll miss you💖

🫶🏼Thank You🫶🏼

After what has been our busiest (and hottest) summer yet, we’re closed today to give our brilliant team a very well-earned day off🥳

A huge thank you to everyone who’s eaten, drank, celebrated, popped in for “just one” and supported us throughout the summer — you’ve certainly kept us busy, and we’re incredibly grateful! ❤️

We’ll be back, rested and ready to go, Bank Holiday Monday from 11am 🍻

See you then! 🔔

☀️The Summer Party food & outdoor bar menu has officially landed — and nobody will be going home hungry🤤

🔥We’ll be firing up the flatbreads & because no summer party is complete without an outdoor bar, we'll have enough refreshments to make your dancing improve dramatically as the day goes on - allegedly🫣

Come for a flatbread - Stay because you’ve had three Pimm’s and suddenly think you can beat Max at the garden games🧩🏆

STOCKS OF SHAME ⚔️

Hear ye, hear ye, people of Claypole!

The stocks are built, the sponges are soaking… now all we need are some willing victims 👀

At our Summer Party on Saturday 29th August, we’ll be putting the Stocks of Shame to good use — all in the name of raising money for a worthy cause🥳

We’re looking for brave volunteers willing to take on the stocks while friends, family (and anyone you’ve mildly annoyed over the years😕) gets the chance to launch a soaking wet sponge at you🧽

Think you’re brave enough? Or know someone who deserves a spell in the stocks? Comment below or drop us a message to volunteer📩

Choose wisely… Claypole has good aim🎯
