🍻 RIGHT… YOU’VE BEEN ASKING, SO WE’RE DOING IT! 🍸

Starting FRIDAY 25TH SEPTEMBER, The Lock will be open EVERY Friday & Saturday evening for drinks.

Food finishes at 5pm. The chefs are clocking off and quite frankly, we’re letting them 😂
The menus go away, but the bar carries on. 🍻

No booking. No fuss. Just turn up.

Come with friends, come as a couple, get a group together or pop in for “just one”…

Although we all know how “just one” usually ends 😂

Cocktail to start? Bottle of w**e for the table? Nice cold pint? Maybe a c***r, a G&T or your usual favourite? Whatever you fancy, pull up a chair, get comfy and enjoy a really relaxed evening by the marina. 🍸🍷🍺

And this isn’t just for one weekend. Friday & Saturday drinks at The Lock are here to stay.

It’ll be lovely to see plenty of familiar faces back at the bar, and hopefully lots of new ones too. ❤️

EVERY FRIDAY & SATURDAY

🍴 Food till 5pm
🍸 Drinks only after 5pm
🔔 Last orders 10pm

So… who’s coming? 👀
