🚨 SATURDAY JUST GOT CHEAPER! 🚨

If you’re paying full price for your premium pints tonight… we need to have a little chat! 🍻😂

Pop into The Poacher between 8pm and 10pm and enjoy 40% OFF premium pints! More beer, less spending… now that’s the sort of maths we like. 💸🍺

Grab your mates, soak up the atmosphere, and make the most of your Saturday night without emptying your wallet. After all, the only thing that should be getting hammered tonight is the beer… not your bank account! 😉🍻

🎉🎤 DON’T FORGET WE HAVE THE AMAZING TESS JOINING US FROM 9PM 🎤🎉

🎉🎤 DON’T FORGET WE HAVE THE AMAZING TESS JOINING US FROM 9PM 🎤🎉

📼🎶 STOP! Collaborate and listen… The Poacher’s got another cracking night of 90s nostalgia! 😎🍻

Our 90s Weekend keeps rolling tonight as Tess McDonald hits the stage from 9pm, bringing all the tunes that had you recording the Top 40 off the radio and arguing over whose turn it was to rewind the cassette! 🎤💃

Expect banger after banger, plenty of singalongs, dodgy dance moves, and enough nostalgia to make you want to dig out your shell suit! 😂

So grab your mates, grab a drink, and let’s prove the 90s really did have the best music… we’ll leave the frosted tips and inflatable furniture at home though! 🍻🎶

See you tonight at The Poacher… where the party’s always better than staying in watching reruns of Gladiators! 💙❤️

🎄🚨 YES… we know it’s only July! 🚨🎄

Before anyone says it… “It’s too early for Christmas!” 🤣

Let’s be honest though… this is The Poacher! You lot know exactly what happens every year… one minute it’s sunshine and BBQs, the next you’re asking us if there’s any room left for Christmas Eve! 🎅🍻

So here’s a little sneak peek at what we’ve got lined up…

🎄 Christmas Eve Party – Live Act, DJ, festive tunes, dancing, great drinks and the biggest party night of the year!

⚽🥳 Boxing Day Party – Live sport all day, fancy dress, party anthems, drinks flowing and our DJ taking you through until late. Football, pints and questionable fancy dress choices… what could possibly go wrong?! 🍺😂

If history tells us anything, it’s that these nights fill up fast… so don’t be the one messaging us on Christmas Eve with “Any chance you can squeeze 14 of us in?” 😅

🎅 Want to make sure you don’t miss out?
📩 Drop us a message
☎️ Give us a call
🍻 Or pop into the pub and get your plans sorted early.

Christmas at The Poacher is always one to remember… or, depending on how many pints you’ve had, one you’ll struggle to remember! 😉🎄🍺
