Really sad to hear that Paddy is retiring from the Pen Factory (I know @tommye will agree), but I was relieved to hear that Dom and Fiona are taking over.

A brilliant man, with a fantastic eye for detail and expectations. I remember telling him in an off-the-cuff remark that I was travelling up north and would get a pie.

When he heard the name of the bakery, I was given detailed orders to buy certain ones for him because he wanted to try them in the Everyman.

`A few weeks later, they were on the menu after I found he was doing round-trips to collect them - absolutely marking and definitely not cost-efficient.

But it was always the best with Paddy.

There’s an article in todays Echo, which says it’s being run by the company they front - Small Hands.

It looks like Fiona is going to run it.

Be interesting to see what Dom does with the Kitchen as his pubs predominantly don't do food which is a big part of the Pens offering.

Personally think he'll shoot himself in the foot if he gets rid because I reckon the clientele is 50% Food 50% Ale.

Opening Friday it seems

Pale Ale 3.4% Lakes Brew Co.

A beautiful pint, bursting with flavour and dangerously easy to drink !

I’m really getting into these low abv session beers, which are packed full of flavour.

With the added bonus of two pub dogs causing mayhem !
