Comedy at The Anglers in aid of The RNLI

Covid 19 Information
To ensure that customers enjoy Comedy at The Anglers in aid of The RNLI safely, we are following government guidance for outdoor theatre.

We always strive to go above and beyond the standards expected by our customers, and our approach to our reopening preparations has been no exception. We have undertaken individual risk assessments for every pub and hotel in our estate, allowing us to ensure that from the moment you arrive at any of our pubs and hotels, you feel safe, at home and able to enjoy the buzz and atmosphere of a first-class pub experience.

All our pubs and hotels are deep cleaned before opening, with hand sanitising stations throughout. Our seating arrangements will allow for 1m+ social distancing and, where possible, we have separate entrances and exits, with a one-way system allowing for smooth access throughout our pubs and hotels. We have also been developing an order and pay at table system for food and drink, which is now in operation in across a growing number of our pubs, in addition to an online check-in facility for our hotels.

We are encouraging you to book in advance, as this allows us to guarantee you a table and deliver a safe and enjoyable experience. We will, of course, be taking walk-ins whenever possible – but with space at a premium, it’s best to book.

Our already rigorous cleaning regimes will be taken to another level, with all hard surfaces sanitised between sittings, single-use menus or the use of menu boards and a fanatical commitment to hand washing for all team members. We have also introduced QR codes that link to our menus online, which will help in our effort to conserve paper and prevent waste, while also removing another contact point.

In our hotels, a new online check-in facility will make checking in and out seamless and you will be able to cancel your booking free of charge, up to midday on the day before arrival.

These rules are designed for your safety and to prevent the spread of coronavirus. They are also now enforceable by law and we will need to keep strictly to these rules at all times. This includes the wearing of masks at our pubs when you are not sat at your table.

All our team members have undertaken comprehensive training, enabling them to do what they do best – look after you, keep you safe and make sure every customer leaves happy.


When you arrive at the pub, we will ask you to complete a mandatory Track and Trace registration (or to use your NHS Test & Trace app). We have made QR codes available in all of our pubs and these will also provide an alternative for anyone who hasn’t got the NHS app.

The NHS QR code will be used by those with the NHS app, and will log your presence in the pub. If you prefer to use our system, you will need to scan the QR code using the camera on your smart phone (IOS or Android), which will take you directly to a Track and Trace registration form. It is a legal requirement that we ask at least one member of each party to register their details and we hope our customers will play their part in this important exercise. If you don’t have a smart phone or have signal issues, we will collect your registration on paper and dispose of this securely after the data retention period has ended.

Any Track and Trace data collected is held for a maximum of 21 days from the date of the last registered visit. If you have WIFI enabled on your phone and visit the same or another pub, we may be able to recognise your phone and automatically register you, however it is important that you complete the registration process on every visit regardless. Registration details captured on paper will be securely destroyed at the end of the 21-day period.
