This quiz is particularly important to us as we’re helping to raise awareness and funds for Hirschsprung Disease, a rare condition that affects the large intestine. Babies are born without the nerve cells needed to move waste through part of the bowel, which can cause serious difficulties and often requires surgery.

It’s a condition many people have never heard of, and we’d love to help raise awareness and support families affected by it. ❤️

Join us for a bit of friendly competition, and help us support a cause that means a lot to us.

🚴‍♂️ SHUT UP LEGS! 🚴‍♀️

Today we’re delighted to be a feed station for Shut Up Legs, a special ride through the Lakes in memory of Nathan Park and fundraising for Great Ormand Street Hospital.

Here are the marshals outside the pub this morning, helping to keep everyone supported along the way.

Nathan was clearly someone who brought a lot of laughter, friendship and energy to those around him — and it’s wonderful to see his memory bringing people together today.

If you’d like to support this fantastic cause, you can donate here:

Our 2nd Pubiversary! 🎉

Two years ago, we took a leap of faith and became the custodians of Outgate Inn. Today, we’re celebrating two wonderful years in this very special little hamlet that we’re proud to call home.

The photo might show blue skies, but anyone in hospitality knows it isn’t always sunshine! The winter months can be tough, there are long days, late nights and plenty of challenges along the way. But through it all, we've been supported by an amazing community.

A huge thank you to our wonderful locals, loyal regulars, visiting tourists, returning customers, fantastic suppliers, our partners at Robinsons Brewery, and to our brilliant staff who work so hard and care so much about this pub.

Most of all, thank you for making us feel so welcome. You’ve helped turn Outgate from somewhere we work into somewhere we feel we belong.

Here's to the friendships made, the laughs shared, the pints poured, and hopefully many more years to come. 🍻

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for being part of our journey.

Nicola & Jamie ❤️

AUGUST GUEST B**R
Complot - Mediterranean IPA from Damm to the bar! 🌞

Brewed with Mediterranean-grown hops from Prades in Spain and a blend of eight different hop varieties, Complot is a beautifully balanced IPA that's bursting with character. Expect vibrant tropical fruit, ripe mango and citrus aromas, a smooth malt backbone, and a refreshing, crisp finish with just the right amount of hop bitterness. 🍊🥭🌿 It's a highly refreshing Session IPA at 4.3% ABV.

If you're an IPA fan—or just fancy trying something a little different—this one's well worth a pint. 🍻
