PEOPLE WHO RUN OUR PUBS
Having a passion for pubs is crucial. From young entrepreneurs taking the leap from being a manager to having their own venue, to established businesspeople diversifying into the pub trade, or even family businesses who’ve run our pubs for generations, we’ve proud of our Partners. We have Partners with one pub and others with multiple, and we asked a range of them to introduce themselves below.
OUR PEOPLE ARE AS UNIQUE AS OUR PUBS. BUT ONE THING IS THE SAME – GREAT PEOPLE MAKE GREAT PUBS.
Hear from our partners
We asked our Partners who would be up for getting on camera to say a few words about why they love running pubs and what makes our relationship special.
-
“They’ve got a genuine interest in your business“
There is always someone there to help, day or night. What’s special about Robinsons is the family feel that runs from the top throughout the brewery. They have a knowledge of who you are, and how your business runs. That’s something I don’t believe you get everywhere else.
Dave Buxton
Pub Partner at Tollemache Arms, Tarporley -
“It’s our ten year anniversary this year“
When you phone up the brewery, you’ve got between one and eight options of who to speak to. There’s always someone there to help you. My BDM visits every month or so, and we talk about different trends, pricing, menus. Allsorts really.
Anthony Griffiths
Pub Partner at Crown Inn, Lixwm -
“Its our home, its not just our business“
I’ve been doing this all my life, but you don’t realise the experience and the knowledge you’re gaining from such a core group of experts in there own individual departments. You’re more than just a tenant, you’re appreciated.

You can really tell the difference, that it is family oriented, it’s just amazing. They stand out from the rest.

They are like family to us and if you ask for help, they will give you help. They are fantastic to work for, and you instantly become part of the family with Robinsons.
Kelly AppletonOperator Partner at The Heron, Kendal -
“The pub becomes your family“
It was my dream to run a pub and I’ve been doing it now for 17 years. There is no disguising that it’s hard work, it can be early starts and late finishes but the pub is your extended family. Being the community’s local, you’re everything to everyone and pubs are a huge part of the local landscape. You might be the only face someone sees in a day and those daily conversations are so important. If you strive to make a difference to people, you’re proud of your pub and your willing to embrace being the epicentre of the local community – go for it.
Jo Farrell
Pub Partner at Windsor Castle, Marple Bridge
Pubs are just a building without the people. And we’ve got some beautiful buildings. But when you walk in, the feeling, the energy of the place, that’s down to the Pub Partner. The welcome, the pride, that warm feeling you can’t describe, that’s what makes a pub.
