A new Bromley pub is set to open its doors on Monday with pints from £3, as pub group Amber Taverns brings its budget drinks and sports-screened venues inside the M25 for the first time.
The Saving Grace will launch in Bromley High Street on Monday 16 November, replacing the popular Barrel and Horn after its permanent closure in April.
The pub is operated by Amber Taverns, a northern chain which manages 192 pubs across the country and is known for pouring pints as cheap as £3.
Pints at The Saving Grace will start from £3 for John Smith’s and Foster’s, while wine will start from £2.95 for a small glass.
The pub has undergone a six-figure makeover ahead of the opening, including a new bar, upgraded screens and sound systems, and a patio garden.
Salle Wroblewski, the southern regional director for Amber Taverns, said: “We’re absolutely delighted to be bringing The Saving Grace to Bromley.”
“It’s our first pub inside the M25, so this is a particularly special opening for us, and we’ve pulled out all the stops to create something we think people are going to love,” she said.
“The transformation is fantastic, and we’ve invested in everything from the design and facilities to the drinks offer and entertainment, what we’re most excited about is the opportunity to create a thriving community pub.”
New operator Aleks Busarova said: “I’m so excited to finally be opening the doors!”
“The transformation really is incredible, and I think people are going to be amazed when they see what’s been done,” she said. “We’ve got a beautiful new pub, a fantastic range of drinks and some brilliant facilities, but for me it’s all about the atmosphere we create.”
“I want The Saving Grace to be full of life, with plenty happening and a real sense of community,” she added. “I’m looking forward to getting to know our customers, bringing some great ideas to life and making The Saving Grace a pub that Bromley can be proud of.”
The venue’s focus will be on televised sports alongside its affordable drinks, as the group looks to win over Bromley drinkers with its first London pub.
It is the latest in a run of new openings across the capital, with Jollibee opening a new Oxford Street restaurant and a rooftop spa opening in Sutton.
