Wonderful news 🙌🍻
A pub that has struggled since the pandemic and was in need of some TLC has been given a new lease of life after Shipstone's stepped in to save it. The Johnson Arms in Lenton has been transformed back into a proper traditional, community boozer.
And more importantly, it's a place where they can showcase their own beers, with up to six cask ales on tap, all brewed a few miles away along the ring road. Shipstone's India Ale and Gold Star pale ale are amongst them. Complementing the beer is a simple pizza menu and regular barbecues take place in the garden.
Operations director Nick Dunleavy said: “We want to ensure that the pub is a central part of the community. A safe, inclusive hub where people can reunite with the neighbourhood as well as friends and family.” "Keeping local meeting places open is essential for positive socialisation which has a proven benefit on mental health, especially in tough times. So post-pandemic we want to provide that hub for the community to confide in others or just talk over a beer."View gallery Mr Dunleavy described the Johnson Arms as having “wonderfully diverse regulars", who have been supportive of the changes. The pub is situated at the side of the River Leen and has been a beer house since the 1860s.
