A Cheshire pub is pleading with customers to stop bringing in their own food and drink after spotting a "growing trend" of people sneaking in their own supplies. The Eight Farmers pub in Leighton, Crewe issued a lengthy statement on their Facebook page saying that people "purchasing drinks from the Co-Op or brought from home" are not helping with their own rising costs.
The pub is popular with families as it boasts a large outdoor play area and bouncy castle in the summer months and is right next to a Co-Op convenience store. Bosses say it's unfair for people to use the pub facilities, but then bring in their own drinks instead of buying the pub's food and drink offering.
The statement, which was titled "polite notice" asked for customer's assistance in the matter. But added that anyone found flouting their policy from now on will be "asked to leave".
