Reddington Pub Company has completed a £2 million investment to redevelop and reopen two hospitality venues in Gunthorpe, Nottinghamshire. The company aims to expand its footprint in the Midlands’ premium dining and events market.
The project includes the revival of The Anchor, a family-focused pub, café, and events space, and the transformation of Tom Browns into a high-end dining and entertainment venue. Both sites are located alongside the River Trent and have been longstanding fixtures in the local hospitality scene.
The investment has created 100 new jobs and positions the company to cater to leisure and corporate clients. The Anchor now offers dining, luxury accommodation, and an events courtyard suitable for private functions and business gatherings. It also features unique attractions like a model train for families and a café providing takeaway options for visitors.
Tom Browns has been repositioned as an adults-only dining destination focusing on premium steak and seafood. The venue will host live performances and events throughout the year, supporting Reddington’s strategy of integrating entertainment with upscale food offerings.
The relaunch aligns with the company’s growth strategy in the Midlands. It complements its existing venues, including The Old Vol and The Reindeer, and reinforces its presence in the region’s competitive food and beverage sector.
