Established village pub near Newark unveils new look after major refurbishment

An established village pub near Newark has been transformed following an extensive refurbishment. The works took three weeks to carry out, but The Grove Inn pub at Balderton now boasts a brighter and more modern look.

Some of the changes that have been made include a refreshed bar area, refurbished soft furnishing and an enhanced dining area. There is now a more relaxed and welcoming environment for customers to enjoy whether they are popping in for a pint with friends or a full meal with family

The pub, which is one of 200 Sizzling Pubs across the country, has also introduced a brand-new food menu in addition to its new look. Pub favourites like Chicken Tikka Masala and Halloumi Flatbread are available, as well as other freshly cooked dishes.
