minkey Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Just wondering if anyone knows what's happening at The Cricket, Totley? Friends went to play cricket there last week and said the pub was shut...anyone know anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy C Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 The Cricket Inn has changed hands. It is now owned by a new company called BrewKitchen. Behind this venture is Jim Harrison from Thornbridge Hall along with Simon Webster, teamed up with Richard and Victoria Smith who own the Thyme, Artison and Catch restaurants. It is no longer to be run as a seperate pub and restaurant - it is now one big dining area that can seat up to 100 covers in a ‘pub that does good food’. It reopens following refurbishment soon, and I assume the bar will feature beer from Thornbridge Brewery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swordfish1 Posted June 12, 2007 Share Posted June 12, 2007 I've been informed it's now open again. Hope so, seeing as I'm supposed to be going this weekend!! Edit:- I understand that a friend has telephoned them, and they're definately open again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_jim Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 It opened on Monday. Wonderful no nonsense menu and good food. When the sun is shining it's glorious outside and the inside is very well done decor wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beckelina Posted June 13, 2007 Share Posted June 13, 2007 I went last night when we found the cupboard was bare and it was a warm evening. Yummy food, very similar style to what was on offer before but quality is great again! More beers too, hurrah Thornbridge is there but a work night is not a night for Jaipur! Inside hasn't changed hugely, just smartened up and looking good. plus restaurant end is now part of main pub, which is common sense. Only downside is prices are still at the top end for a pub IMHO. £3 each for pints of fancy lager, cheapest bitter is £2.40/pint. Ouch. But the Cricket is deffo back on our list!
