Britain’s Smallest Pub Opens In Garden Shed.
Visitors get a free beer (on one condition).
Britain’s smallest pub has started serving its first pints in a shed
smaller than a snooker table.
The tiny bar, which “fits comfortably in a transit van” measures just
6ft by 8ft and only has space for four people at a time - including the
barman.
Punters who leave their mobile phones at the door are awarded a free
beer in the pub, which opens on Friday (21 October) in Greenwich, south
east London.
The bar, which is only open for seven days, is called The Make Time for
It and serves six limited edition craft beers as well as other larger
and ales.
Marketing director for brewer Meantime, Rich Myers, said: “The Make Time
For It campaign was designed to highlight the importance of time, the
fifth ingredient in our beers, as well as celebrate the best of British
craft from across the country.”
Myers added that the bar was designed “to help create the perfect
drinking environment”.
He described it as a “space to appreciate craft in a variety of forms
and the perfect spot to spend time catching up with a mate over a beer”.
The pub may be a temporary pop-up, but if all goes well it could be back
in a town near you.
Myers said: “We’re also exploring the idea of sending the bar on tour
around the country, made possible by the fact that it fits comfortably
in a transit van.”
