The Rotherham pub reopened on Wednesday 19th November, with an exciting new look

The Bluebell Inn is now open, boasting an investment of over £309,000, which has transformed the well-loved locals' pub to feature a host of exciting upgrades.

The pub is introducing its innovative “Two Door Pub” concept, now offering a sports bar area and a separate family lounge, creating two distinct spaces: a lively bar for locals and a cosy, family-friendly lounge. Designed to cater to all occasions, The Bluebell Inn brings the community together, offering guests the flexibility to enjoy their ideal experience, with no compromises.

The community hero selected to pour the first pint to mark the pub's opening was Suzanne, a well-known local who has made a significant impact in the area through her dedication to supporting the pub with various charitable causes, from supporting food banks to participating in local fundraising events and donating prizes for tombolas and raffles. Suzanne is a familiar face in the community.

The newly updated bar area features large HD screens to keep guests entertained with all the latest sports action. The space also features a dedicated darts area and pool table, allowing guests to challenge friends, enjoy some friendly competition, and soak up the lively atmosphere.

The Bluebell Inn is a dog-friendly locals' pub with a community feel. Locals can now drop by for a pint and a bite to eat, celebrating unmissable moments in the heart of the community. The pub continues to serve its much-loved favourites alongside a special festive set menu, featuring Christmas classics such as traditional roast turkey and indulgent desserts like dark chocolate mint tart. With gluten-free and vegan options available, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

The Bluebell will host a variety of events over the festive period for all the family to enjoy, including events perfect for kids and fun nights for adults.

General Manager, Harley Dawson, said: “At The Bluebell Inn, we’re excited to introduce our distinctive ‘Two Door Pub’ concept to the community. This investment reflects our commitment to creating a space where both locals and visitors can enjoy memorable experiences, whether it’s the thrill of live sports in our vibrant bar or the comfort of relaxing in our inviting family lounge. Every detail of this refurbishment has been carefully considered to cater for a variety of occasions, blending modern style with the warmth of home. With something for everyone, we can’t wait to welcome guests through our doors.”

With more than 1,300 pubs and bars across England, Scotland, and Wales, Marston’s locations range from traditional local and family-friendly pubs to venues designed for a warm, timeless country pub atmosphere offering shared good times for everyone.
