Community-Owned Pubs Doubling As Community Centres 🍻

“Our aim is to improve the community and make the neighbourhood a nicer place to be by people spending more time with one another,’ says Gadsby Peet. “I see it as a community hub that’s enabled by the income from a pub, as opposed to just being a pub.”   On first impressions, the pub might look like your classic East End neighbourhood boozer. Wood-panelled l-shaped bar? Check. Floral-patterned red carpet? Check. Dartboard? Check. But as well as the main bar, there’s another room that the pub often rents out for no cost – it’s used for a regular children’s stay and play sessions hosted by a local provider, English lessons for refugees and meetings for charities. While the pub doesn’t do food, it hosts pop-ups with Plateful Cafe, a community organisation that trains and employs refugee chefs.
