Pubs of the Year
2001 - Chequers, Little Gransden
|
The Chequers, Little Gransden was chosen as the St. Neots CAMRA Branch 2001 Pub of the Year. Landlords Bob and Wendy Mitchell were presented with a framed certicate to commemmorate the award at the pubs' '50th anniversary' event on 2nd March.  |
The event was held in a large marquee in the pubs garden and was attended by 300 invited guests, including local CAMRA members, to celebrate the pub being in the Mitchell family for 50 years. Bob and some of his regulars brewed 'Gransden Glory' 1041 at Cambridge brewers Milton Brewery especially for the celebration, and very nice it was too, with Richard Naisby from the brewery also attending the event. Another highlight of which was the excellent pig roast prepared by Bob himself, something he does regularly for outside events. With some solid 60/70's sounds played live it was a very enjoyable night for all. |
