It’s great to see another one of our fantastic pubs thriving!👌🍻

The Rutland Arms Bottesford reopened this June following a £130k investment that has transformed this beautiful pub into a family-friendly village pub and restaurant.

The investment has injected new life into the charming pub which proudly boasts something for the whole community.

Publican Russell Wheatcroft said: “The Rutland Arms has been a prominent pub not just in Bottesford but also in the Vale of Belvoir for many years and is a central meeting point for so many.

“The investment was important to allow us to maintain our reputation in the village, and being able to offer a wide selection of food and drinks also helps to keep the pub vibrant.”

It was a pleasure to welcome two of our new local Labour MPs to Jubilee House yesterday.

Jacob Collier MP (Burton & Uttoxeter) and Josh Newbury MP (Cannock Chase) met CEO Clive Chesser and other members of the Punch team.

They were given a tour of our progressive Pub Training Academy, sampled some menu concepts in our state-of-the art Development Kitchen, learned more about a number of Punch’s ‘Doing Well, By Doing Good’ initiatives and discussed the Labour Party’s commitment to safeguarding pubs across the UK, and our policy asks to support this plan and ensure our pubs not only survive but thrive.
