A popular village pub near Grantham has announced its opening date, featuring beer and pizza.

The much-loved Geese and Fountain has been closed since November due to lockdowns and tier restrictions.

Now, on Monday April 12, it will be opening its doors, sort of, at 4pm.

Landlord Nick Holden said on Facebook: "We will be outdoors only for the time being, and social distancing rules still apply. So a limit of 1 household per table will be in place and everything will be table service.

"After that we'll be open 11am-5pm every Saturday & Sunday for drinks and food (provided our kitchen work is finished) and for takeaway food Friday & Saturday evenings."

Yesterday, Nick added: "We're well on the way to reopening now:

Brand new card machine

Updating our wifi

Cask cooling jackets arrived yesterday

Kitchen renovations are going well

New outdoor parasols

More solar fairy lights for the courtyard

...and more still to come! "We can't wait to see our regulars on Monday 12th April and to be up and running each weekend from the 17th! If you haven't yet booked a table, do so soon as we're already starting to fill up." For now, drinkers can enjoy deliveries from the Geese & Fountains Growler Club. Customers have welcomed the impending re-opening of the Geese and Fountain, even if government regulations mean they must drink outside. Paul Nunn said: "Fingers crossed there is no more lockdown and you can get back to some normality. Will call in and see you soon." Peta Lean said: "So happy to hear this news at last! Good luck with the re-opening. Much love to all." The Geese and Fountain also has several rooms available for bed and breakfast. Asked when they will be open, Nick added: "Not until we're able to open fully and let people inside again at the earliest, which would be the 17th May." The pub won't know "until closer the time" and when it does, this will be posted on social media, including the Geese and Fountain website.
