Kenilworth pub to reopen less than three months after closing its doors
A popular Kenilworth pub is set to reopen today (January 9) less than three months after it closed its doors.
The Gauntlet has been shut since the middle of October after previous tenant Simon Moore decided he did not want to continue running the Oaks Precinct venue.
Simon, who had run the pub since 2018, told Nub News in September he was "very sad" to be letting the pub go and said he had "put everything into making this one of the best community pubs around".
Since then landlord Stonegate Group has been looking for a new tenant.
But the pub has taken to social media to announce it will once again be open to customers today.
"We would like to take this opportunity to thank the previous manager, Simon, for all he did for the community and running a successful pub," the Facebook post said.
"There are many questions people will have, with raised concerns, and we will do our best to answer a couple now.
"Firstly, The Gauntlet is managed by an independent group, thus Stonegate have no involvement in the day to day running of the pub.
"This has and will always be a community pub, listening to concerns and recommendations that you have. We will always listen!
"Starting in February we plan to reintroduce different themed nights so please speak to our new manager, Elliot, if you have any ideas.
"There are many exciting new things to look forward to at The Gauntlet, starting this month!"
The post said Sky Sports and BT Sport will return by next weekend, and the refurbished kitchen will start serving food from January 16.
