Work continues on the Nags Head pub building, but …
this weekend the island opened up for the first time with a cafe, bar, and grill. The covers were useful as there was a light rain when I got there.
I met Katy and her dad who kindly posed for me holding a pint of Abingdon Bridge,
brewed by Loose Cannon, based in Abingdon.
The Loose Cannon Beer twitter feed said as much last week … “Just had a very exciting meeting with new landlord of The Nags Head on Abingdon Bridge. You will soon be able to drink Bridge on the Bridge!”
Looks brilliant – definitely a ‘must’ whilst the good weather continues. Great to see a local beer too. I really hope it is a roaring success and that the locals support it.
It is really good to see the pub re-opening again.
Mr Hemmings Traditional Abingdon Morris dancers will be celebrating this by dancing there in the gardens tonight (Monday) between 7.30 and 8.30
It was such a disastrous advert for Abingdon when the Nags Head was closed
Idyllic location for a pint by the River, can’t wait to join in the fun.
Well I decided to ‘put my money where my mouth is.’…literally. So this afternoon I went down to the Nag’s Head and had a drink in the garden (island). It is a lovely spot and mine host served a beautiful glass of chilled white wine. Absolutely idyllic…I shall return!!!
Great to see the Nags back in action. I’ve missed the pleasant afternoons by the river. Good luck and we’ll see you soon.
Incidentally did anyone else see a couple of cyclists try to cycle on the pavement through the scaffolding towards town a couple of Sundays ago? Pedestrians were startled. Not the craziest act by a cyclist I’ve seen recently but comes close.
