Did we have you fooled? 🤣
We can confirm The Nelson Hotel is not for sale — we would never do that to you!
Tiles are staying, the gravy station is better than ever, and the soul of the pub remains in the hands of the Richardson’s. 😁
It’s good to know how much love there is for the place. ♥️
See you tonight for an extra hour of happy hour (3–6pm), plus the Easter Beer Wheel 🐰🍻
