South Warwickshire gastropub, The Leopard, has reopened after an exciting six-figure investment, accompanying the launch of a delicious new cocktail menu.

Located in Bishop's Tachbrook, The Leopard closed in late August to begin an extensive refurbishment with the venue upgrading many of its facilities.

Landlord Stonegate said the refurbishment will "enhance the gastropub's offerings while preserving its natural charm".

To celebrate reopening, The Leopard gave away antique keys to members of the local community, with the specially crafted keys owning a QR code which provided the holder with a free drink.

With a new look and feel, The Leopard reopens with contemporary décor refreshing the internal area.

The Leopard's seasonal menus "champion the best of British dishes", complemented by a selection of handcrafted drinks and cocktails.

Externally, the outdoor area has been revamped with new dining furniture, complimenting the existing alfresco dining experience, while the outdoor bar has also undergone a refurbishment.

The gastropub also has a large range of wines accompanying a selection of beers, ciders, as well as The Leopard's new signature cocktails menu - all being provided as part of Chapter Collection's dedication to turn the page on the British pub.

What's more, four-legged friends are welcome throughout the venue aside from the dining room, with the gastropub being a popular spot for dog walkers popping in for a tipple.

However, those not drinking alcohol will be able to choose from an extensive range of no and low alcohol options, ensuring everyone is accommodated to.

Reopening in style, Saturday 28 September marked the official launch party where guests were treated to a complimentary glass of bubbles and an exquisite selection of canapés.

Kane Hawkeswood, general manager of The Leopard, said: "These renovations align with Stonegate Group's commitment to always improve and innovate, enabling us to enhance guests' experience at our beloved gastropub.

"Rest assured, we have been very careful to upgrade our facilities while staying true to the building's natural charm, we are thrilled to be opening our doors once again and show guests what we have been working on hard behind the scenes. 

"As we start this next chapter for The Leopard, we can't wait for guests to try our new top-class cocktail menu with our new and improved facilities allowing for a superior guest experience, we can't wait to welcome people back to try one of our fantastic seasonal dishes."
