A new Bees Knees pub has opened in East Lancashire and its interiors look stunning.
The Bees Knees, a pub chain with several sites in East Lancashire, has taken over former The Millstone pub on Bridge Street, Darwen.
Owners, Philip James and John Ashley, have spent the last few months giving the venue a £60,000 makeover, rebranding it and transforming it to match the ‘Bees Knees aesthetic'.
The pub officially opened on Friday night (March 24) at 6pm and is now welcoming customers through the door.
Phillip said: “We are really looking forward to opening in Darwen and adding to the already great nightlife experience within the town.”
Speaking to the Lancashire Telegraph back in February, Philip said the team always wanted to open venue in Darwen.
He said: “It’s going to feel like a proper sports bar, with botanical décor that will look great in an Instagram picture.
"It will appeal to cocktail-lovers thanks to the range of different drinks we provide.
“Those with sporting interests will also enjoy the venue as we will be showing live sports.”
Like other Bees Knees sites, this Darwen venue has ‘botanical’ aesthetic that will look excellent in Instagram pictures.
Other Bees Knees venues, currently open in Colne, Accrington, Blackburn, Burnley and Rawtenstall, will also be undergoing a refurbishment in the coming years.
The Blackburn site, in Lord Street West, is set to be refurbished this summer.
Bees Knees Darwen’s opening hours are:
- Monday to Wednesday: 12pm until 10pm.
- Thursday: 12pm until 2am.
- Friday to Saturday: 12pm until 3am.
- Sunday: 12pm until 10pm.
