Pub unveils new look after £130K makeover
THE CROWN HAD A WEEKEND PARTY FOR REGULARS TO MARK ITS RELAUNCH
A WELL-KNOWN Huddersfield pub reopened on Friday with a stunning new look following a £130,000 makeover after being closed for a fortnight.
The Crown in Scissett, close to the Huddersfield/Barnsley border, closed for just over two weeks for a complete refurbishment. The pub has been refitted and renovated throughout, with new flooring, furniture, design and lighting.
There’s also a new games room with darts and pool, plus the pub’s outside space has been improved as part of the £130,000 project.
After Friday’s reopening, a relaunch party was held across the weekend featuring live music and comedy.
Entertainment including tribute acts, DJs, quiz nights, and karaoke will all form part of the regular entertainment at The Crown, as will top live sporting action.
A host of new HD screens have been fitted throughout the pub. There are now 12 in total so fans can always be sure to catch the big games and events on Sky Sports and BT Sport.
Pub operator Sharon Rose, who has run The Crown for six years, said: “Like all of our customers, the football team can’t wait for us to be open again. They always come in after a game and we are looking forward to seeing them.
“We are very much a community sports pub with a good value offer for everyone to enjoy. We are really looking forward to everyone’s reaction when they see all the work that’s gone on here.”
The pub darts team is set to benefit from the installation of a new illuminated dartboard. There is also a new pool table with plans for a pool team later this year.
The pub is part of the award-winning
Craft Union Pub Company, who were named the Best Community Operator at the 2022 Publican Awards.
