The Crows Nest

06/07/2026

We'll be watching the game on Saturday! If you fancy joining the chaos, drop me a message.
Kick-off rule: The front door becomes a fortress at 9:45pm. After that, it's locked tighter than our defence (hopefully 😅), and no amount of knocking, texting, or sad puppy eyes will get you in.
Arrive before 9:45pm... or enjoy the highlights from your sofa. 🍻⚽🤘🖤

🚨 Urgent Crows business. 🚨
We've got a new chiller.
Paul has, for reasons known only to himself, decided it's female. I suggested Cilla, because clearly Cilla the Chiller is inspired genius. Paul, however, wasnt as impressed as me.
So, as this is obviously a matter of national importance, I'm referring it to the Crows.
Please submit your nominations for our newest colleague. The more ridiculous, the better. Points awarded for puns, pub-related names, and anything that'll annoy Paul just enough to make this worthwhile.
Voting closes whenever we get bored... or Paul gives in.
See you at the bar!
🖤🤘🍺

Tomorrow doors open at 6pm 🖤🤘🍺

Three 14-year-olds, three die-hard rock fans, and three amazing kids who had the honour of opening the Burslem Urban Rock Festival.
Their passion for music, dedication to their craft, and love of rock and roll shine through every performance. Watching them grow as musicians and performers has been amazing, and they're proving that the future of rock is in safe hands.
Don't miss your chance to see them live at The Crows Nest on July 3rd from 7pm, doors open at 6.
Please show them some support—they're making our local music scene proud! 🎸🤘🔥

🍻 BIRTHDAY WARNING 🍻
Somehow he's made it to 64...
Against medical advice, common sense, and several lifetime bans (allegedly), DJ Craig Bailey is celebrating another trip around the sun at Crows Nest on the 18th.
🎸 Rock tunes turned up too loud. 🍺 Enough beers to forget what year it is. 🪑 Craig asleep in a chair before the last set. 💥 Something will get broken. 🎵
Let's give the old bu**er a birthday he'll probably struggle to remember... and the rest of us won't let him forget.
📍 Crows Nest 📅 18th 🍻 Come for the birthday. Stay for the inevitable chaos. 🖤🤘🍺

Minutes of today's staff meeting: 20 seconds. Outcome: England can play at 1am, but we're definitely not opening for it 😅🖤

🚨 New Chiller Alert! 🚨
Despite my finest hammer-based repair techniques, the old chiller decided retirement was the better option. So we've treated ourselves to a shiny new one.
After a thorough investigation lasting almost 30 seconds, we've concluded it's 100% Craig Bailey's fault. The evidence is nonexistent, but the verdict stands.
Enjoy the cold drinks 🖤🤘🍺
See you tomorrow for Walking Alone. Doors open from 6pm
