This investment brings a fresh new look and introduces the innovative 'Two Door Pub' concept, offering guests two distinct areas to suit every occasion.
Richard Neid a representative from St Wilfred’s Church in Bradford, pulled the first pint to mark the pub's opening. Established in 1905, St Wilfred’s has been a cornerstone of the community, offering more than just worship. Known for its Gothic architecture, the church supports locals through initiatives like the Parish Pantry, which provides food for vulnerable residents, and runs playgroups for families, fostering a welcoming environment for all.
The renovation has transformed the pub into a vibrant and welcoming space. The lively sports bar features a 4K big screen showcasing Sky Sports and TNT, complemented by a newly added pool table and darts board. Adjacent to this, the family lounge provides a warm and comfortable setting, complete with contemporary décor and a dedicated kids' play area. A central partition divides the spaces, allowing guests to enjoy everything they love under one roof .
The Flying Squirrel continues to be a community hub, offering a dog-friendly environment where four-legged friends are welcome throughout the pub. Guests can enjoy a variety of popular pub classics, including the Ultimate Ribs and Chicken Platter, Cowboy Burger, and Hand-Battered Fish & Chips, with options available for both adults and children.
The Flying Squirrel offers enticing weekly specials. Guests can enjoy Prosecco Fridays, featuring a bottle of prosecco for £14.99, and Burger Tuesdays, where a burger and a drink are available for just £13.25.
