The Mere Scribbler

Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the two handpumps at the pub have remained unused. The establishment, previously a bank, underwent a refurbishment by Livelyhood and was relaunched as the Mere Scribbler in April 2017. The pub's new moniker is a nod to the 18th-century satirical novelist, diarist, and playwright Frances Burney, who was locally known by this nickname. The Mere Scribbler offers a wide variety of beverages, including a diverse selection of keg and bottled beers, an array of wines, and a range of cocktails. The food served at the pub is highly sought after, with offerings ranging from casual bar snacks to a full-fledged Sunday roast. For sports enthusiasts, the pub features several televisions that broadcast various sports events, including those aired on SKY and TNT Sports channels. The Mere Scribbler seamlessly blends history, gastronomy, and entertainment, making it a popular local hangout.
