Greene King pub and carvery, Lord Ted on Farndon roundabout to close for major refurbishment

The popular Lord Ted on the Farndon roundabout is to shut on Monday to undergo a major refurbishment designed to completely modernise the Greene King Pub & Carvery site.

A garden development has already been completed that has provided four covered and heated tables externally, along with a further covered area with a large screen tv. This area will be further enhanced and provide even better viewing and audio for guests.

Inside the pub, the décor will be given a full makeover, with new carpets, colour scheme, furniture and furnishings.

The bar area is being expanded to further enhance the sports viewing areas, also providing an increase in covers and the restaurant is being modernised to create a brighter and more modern setting for customers.

The sports area will have a new sound system fitted and will boast a total of seven screens, allowing customers to catch all the live sporting action seven days a week. Downloading the Greene King season ticket app will give pub goers10% off drinks.

When it comes to dining, pub guests will be able to enjoy a fresh carvery, served daily at a terrific price, alongside an array of other menu options and a variety of drinks offers.

Simon Keane, general manager of the Lord Ted said: “This year is a big year for the Lord Ted, as we’re celebrating two special anniversaries. Not only are we celebrating the pubs 25th year since it was built, but we are also celebrating our fifth birthday as a pub and carvery, of which we were one of the first.

“The timings of these renovations are very fitting and will further enhance our live sport and dining offering to guests. We can’t wait to welcome back our regulars and new customers to enjoy their new and improved surroundings.”

The Lord Ted closes on Monday and will reopen on Monday November 28.
