Dear valued friends,
It is with a sad face I write this message. For centuries pubs have been the beating heart of the community and to close for even a few hours is very distressing. Sadly as of now we have closed all of your beautiful Hippo pubs until further notice.
We promise to look after your pub and to love and cherish it like never before with our teams working on improvements and living on site.
Thank you all for your support and thank you to my wonderful team.
Looking forward to seeing you as soon as possible.
Above all stay safe and look after each other

We’ll be in touch to confirm.
