It's been confirmed that a Salisbury pub has closed it's doors and will now only serve guests of the hotel it sits next to.
The Hampton Inn Table Table in Bishopdown shut on 4th July after many years serving the community as Premier Inn seek to evolve their food and beverage (F&B) offering to people staying at the hotel.
They've thanked the support of the local community and the staff members who worked at the pub.
The hotel brand says it's launched it's "Accelerating Growth Plan" which includes adding 3,500 hotel rooms and boosting it's F&B offer in order to meet increased demand and deliver a better experience for guests.
In a statement, Whitbread PLC, who own Premier Inn, said: "Over the next 24 months we plan to replace around 112 of our lower-returning branded restaurants with integrated restaurants and use the vacated space to add new higher returning hotel rooms to help meet strong demand. In Fiscal Year 2024 (FY24), these branded restaurants generated an adjusted loss before tax of £19m.
"At these locations we will transfer the delivery of F&B for our hotel guests to an integrated restaurant that will be built inside the neighbouring hotel, mirroring the successful format of our 387 integrated restaurants that are already in operation across our estate."
