Due to the UK’s strict licensing laws, Greene King as a company operates a proof of age scheme and track attempts by underage drinkers to order alcoholic drinks. Customers are not served alcohol without their current forms of ID and as a responsible retailer we are extremely strict on identifying underage drinkers. Our company policy is that the only acceptable forms of ID are a valid UK passport or a valid full UK driving licence. All House Managers and their staff have been instructed to check ID of all customers purchasing alcohol who appear to be under the age of 21 years old. If there is any doubt about the age of the customer, or the customer does not produce ID when requested, our staff have the right to refuse service and may ask the customer to leave the premises.

No, we don’t serve alcohol-free (0%) versions of alcoholic drinks to anyone under 18. While these drinks contain no alcohol, they’re designed to look and feel like alcoholic beverages. To stay compliant with licensing laws and uphold our commitment to creating safe, family-friendly spaces, we’ve chosen to apply the same age restrictions. It’s about consistency, clarity, and making sure our teams and customers know we take responsible service seriously.

No, we don’t serve alcoholic drinks to anyone under 18, even when ordered with food. While the law allows some exceptions, we’ve chosen a stricter approach to avoid confusion and ensure our teams can apply the same rule across all venues. This helps us protect our licence, maintain trust, and reinforce our commitment to safe, inclusive environments.

This can vary, especially during seasonal periods, but you can view our kitchen and serving hours here.

Our contact details can be found on our 'Find Us' page, alternatively you can call us on +44 1223 505 020.

You can contact our Customer Relations team here.

Yes, we are! However, we have a few guidelines that we ask you to follow:

• Dogs are welcome in designated dog-friendly pubs at the manager's discretion. We apologise for any inconvenience.
• Please make sure you and your four-legged friend are considerate of other guests... and other dogs!
• We love wagging tails and excitable characters, but where possible we'd love for you to help keep barking to a minimum.
• Our team are usually busy serving food and collecting glasses, so for their safety dogs should always be kept on a lead in both inside and outside seating areas.
• We like to keep our pubs looking their best, so please keep dogs off sofas, chairs and other furniture.

Yes, we do. Weather permitting though!

At Greene King, we strive to make our venues as accessible as possible so that everyone can enjoy their time at the pub. However, some of our older venues, particularly our listed buildings may not be as accessible as others. We recommend checking if we can cater to your needs ahead of your visit, you can do this by calling us on +44 1223 505 020. If you need any assistance whilst visiting us, please just ask a member of staff.

We ask all customers to vape in designated outdoor areas. This helps us maintain a comfortable atmosphere for everyone inside, especially families and non-vapers, while still offering a respectful space for those who do vape.

No, we don’t allow medicinal cannabis in or around our venues. As cannabis remains a Class B controlled drug, its use raises legal and safety concerns. We take a cautious approach to protect all our customers and team members, and to ensure our venues remain safe and welcoming for everyone.

Unfortunately, no. Privately owned electric scooters are currently banned from public roads, pavements, and cycle paths under UK law. To stay aligned with these regulations and ensure safety on our sites, we don’t allow them inside our venues.

We’re unable to offer e-bike charging at this time. Due to historic fire risks associated with battery charging, we can’t guarantee it can be done safely on site. We know this may be inconvenient, but safety must come first for our customers, teams, and venues.

We ask customers not to bring items associated with political protests into our venues. Our pubs are places for people to relax, connect, and enjoy time together, and we want to make sure everyone feels comfortable doing so. To avoid disruption or discomfort, we kindly ask that such items are removed or put away before entering.
