The Real Santa appeared...

A Heart Warming Children's Christmas Party...

Nestled in the heart of the Shropshire countryside, The New Inn at Hook-a-Gate proved once again why it's the beloved local pub for many families.

This December, they hosted a magical Children's Christmas Party, bringing festive cheer to their younger loyal customers and PJ was invited to provide the entertainment. A 90 minute funtime show with some Christmas magic for all to enjoy.

The pub was beautifully decorated inside & out with twinkling lights, inflatable Snowmen and a beautifully adorned tree that set the scene for a magical Kids Party. 

It wasn’t just the decorations that made the event special—the food was absolutely amazing! The little ones had a blast enjoying their meals, and the adults were equally impressed with the offerings and the real ale choice looked fabulous, shame PJ was driving! 

The Children's Christmas Party at The New Inn wasn’t just about great food and decorations—it was about bringing the community together and creating cherished memories. With laughter, games, and a special visit from Santa himself, it was an event that left everyone with smiles on their faces. 

If your ever in the area, give this place a visit and support your local.
