General manager Cae Wood said, “We are so excited to open the doors of the Otter and to show our guests the final results of our refresh.

“We have invested £115,000 into breathing new life into the venue. We can’t wait to welcome everybody back.”

The venue, which prides itself on being a “family friendly pub”, closed its doors on April 17 so the revamp could be carried out.

Guests can also enjoy new additions to menu including loaded fries with spicy pulled pork, nacho cheese sauce, BBQ sauce, crispy onions and chopped chives and classic lagers on draught, cask ales and a variety of cocktails and G&Ts.
