PUB REOPENS AFTER SIX-FIGURE INVESTMENT

- By SOFIE JACKSON

THE Punch Bowl pub in James Reckitt Avenue has reopened following a six-figure investment.

After weeks of hard work, the east Hull community pub has been given a new lease of life, marking the beginning of a new chapter for the bar as it opens with a new operator.

Andrew Matfin, operator of The Punch Bowl, said: “We can’t wait to reopen our doors and welcome both new and returning guests back to our renovated pub.

“The refurbishment has improved our position as the best place to watch sports in the area, while our strong events schedule consistently provides our guests with reasons to visit our pub and enjoy one of our great-value tipples.
