The Hare & Hounds in Greenford, Ealing, has undergone an exciting refurbishment, reopening as a ‘Grandstand’ sports pub, following an investment of over £254,600.

The much-loved community pub has been transformed with new features, including the latest technology to ensure each visit rivals a stadium experience.
The Hare & Hounds proudly welcomed Charlotte Armstrong as their community hero to pull the first pint and officially mark the pub’s opening. Charlotte was recognised for her dedication to supporting those in need and working with the elderly to keep them involved in the local community.

New market-leading technology has been installed, including over 10 large, HD screens, a state-of-the-art sound system, and flexible tiered seating to guarantee a great view of the action.

Outdoor bars with screens have been added, and the all-new Marston’s ‘Order & Pay’ app will now allow locals to order from their tables, never missing a minute of the action.

The Hare & Hounds has been decorated with local sports memorabilia. It is on the hunt for photographs and merchandise, giving pub-goers the chance to fill the walls and celebrate the achievements of local sports stars and teams, past and present.

The pub will show all key sporting fixtures, including football, rugby, cricket, tennis, F1, darts, horse racing, you name it, they will show it! Regulation dart boards and pub games will provide entertainment well after the final whistle, with new competition leagues and ‘free to play’ recreational sessions taking place throughout the week.

A new range of bar food has been introduced, perfect for half-time and for sharing. The ‘Match Day Menu’ will feature hand-held bites, such as chicken wings and nachos, sitting alongside pub favourites such as fish and chips and burgers. The Hare & Hounds has also refreshed its range of drinks, and all draught beer is available in 2-pint cups.

There will also be the chance for local sports teams to get their hands on a ‘Black Card’, securing them endless chips when they visit for team drinks, and even more rewards if they win their game.

The new Grandstand concept has been introduced after industry research* revealed that 8.5M consumers have watched sports games at the pub, and 86% of sports fans say that they watch games at sports pubs due to a livelier atmosphere, better screens, sound, and connecting with friends and family.

Marston’s picked the Hare & Hounds as one of the pubs to receive the Grandstand makeover due to its involvement with local sports teams, community groups, and charities. The refurbishment has created a new and exciting proposition for local sports fans from Greenford and beyond.

The Pub Partner said: “From new screens and menus to involving the local community, we’re passionate about creating spaces where everyone feels welcome – whether they’re here for the match, a family meal, or to celebrate with their team after the final whistle.”

The Hare & Hounds reopened on 1st April.
