A HARBOURSIDE pub in Cornwall that has undergone a major renovation is due to reopen on Friday, June 28.
The Pier House in Charlestown has been closed for the revamp since the end of 2023 following a fire earlier in the year.
Helen Sprason, area manager for St Austell Brewery, said: “It’s been amazing to watch the Pier House transform over the months to restore the pub to its former glory and then some.
“We’ve sensitively exposed the history of the building, showcasing the grandeur of the structure and how it’s been used over the years. There will be a dedicated restaurant area, lots of cosy nooks to sit in and watch the world go by, and a lovely new bar.
“The 23 rooms are also receiving a major makeover, with the introduction of new textures and materials to reflect the pub’s coastal surroundings.”
Meanwhile, the Harbour Beer House, the former Harbour Inn, will reopen in Charlestown on Saturday, June 22.
The Harbour Beer House is a joint venture between Padstow-based Harbour Brewing Co and St Austell Brewery.
A spokesperson said: “Harbour Beer House will be the go-to place to experience Harbour Brewing’s amazing beers, with regular new and exclusive beers on show, supported by St Austell’s beers and innovation.
“As well as amazing beers and drinks, the new hangout will serve freshly-made pizzas and host live music sets. There will be takeaway fridges too so beer lovers can choose packaged brews, from breweries further afield, to enjoy at home.
“To mark the reopening of the Pier House, St Austell Brewery is teaming up with Biffa, its waste partner, to invite the public and its employees to take part in a group beach clean in Charlestown on Saturday, June 22.
“Those who join will be treated to a free tea and coffee before the clean and a free pint and slice of pizza in the newly-opened Harbour Beer House afterwards. Those who would like to join can meet outside the Pier House at 10.30am, with the clean finishing at midday.
“The full launch party for the Beer House and Pier House will be held in September.”
