Joule’s Brewery is excited to announce that Sam and Gary, the landlords of The Leopard in Nantwich, will be bringing their expertise and passion to The Lower Chequer in Sandbach with a special ‘Taphouse Takeover’. The highly anticipated opening night is set for Friday, 13th September 2024.
Famous for their dedication to creating a vibrant community atmosphere and delivering top-notch service, Sam and Gary have been with Joule’s Brewery for over 10 years.
Having been recognized with the ‘Taphouse of the Year’ award at Joule’s Taphouse Awards 2023, as well as the ‘Best Pub with Food’ at the 2023 Nantwich Food Awards, they are now eager to bring their successful approach to The Lower Chequer.
The ‘Taphouse Takeover’ promises to offer a unique blend of great ales, warm hospitality, and an electric atmosphere that Sam and Gary have become known for. The Lower Chequer will also be the new home for “Live at the Chequer,” a weekly live music event featuring talented musicians every Saturday night at 9pm, running through the end of the year. The series will kick off with a special performance on the opening night, setting the tone for many memorable evenings to come.
“We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to bring our love for great beer and live music to Sandbach,” said Sam. “The Lower Chequer is a fantastic venue with a lot of potential, and we can’t wait to welcome both regulars and new faces alike.”
Gary added, “Winning Taphouse of the Year was a huge honour for us, and we’re excited to take on this new challenge. We’re committed to making The Lower Chequer a go-to destination for the community and beyond.”
The takeover at The Lower Chequer marks an exciting new chapter for the historic pub, blending tradition with the vibrant, welcoming atmosphere that Sam and Gary have cultivated over the years.
