"Feeling as dry as a camel trekking through the Sahara on Hump Day? Not a chance at The Chieftain. As much as we love camels and sand, we hate that desert dry throat sensation. Fuel up with our satisfyingly icy beverages, and wipe away those midweek blues. Not to mention, the live sports and top-notch vibes on tap - because who said Wednesdays have to be mundane? Oh, and here's the real kicker - We heard you, we listened, and voila! Boddingtons and Fosters will soon be back quenching your thirst, AGAIN!

Wait, there's more! After toasting glasses and chattering, we invite you to a little sideline entertainment of horse racing that might just get your adrenaline pumping. And, for those who fancy the spectacle of men chasing a ball around, you're in luck - we're bringing the beautiful game of football to you through the evening. So yes, Tuesday, uncover your head-spinning surprises - we've got everything covered right here! 🍻🏇⚽

Yes, you heard that right, from 10 in the morning till the clock strikes 6 in the evening, Monday to Thursday, are your bless-ed hours! 😎

Live sports, a sprinkle of horse racing, a dash of football and drinks that won't burn a hole in your pocket. Ultimate bliss, here we come! 🍻🏇⚽ And guess what? There's only one hotspot to be on the block! Where's that? No points for guessing folks! Looking forward to seeing your lovely faces basking in the happy hour glory at the bar.
