Pub chain with 90 restaurants around the UK has made a huge change – and it'll cut queues
The change comes after a costly £600,000 refurbishment CHEERS! Pub chain with 90 restaurants around the UK has made a huge change – and it'll cut queues Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MAJOR pub chain has rolled out a brand-new system that bosses say will slash queues. RedCat Pub Company, which owns more than 90 venues across the UK, has just reopened its Norfolk-based pub, The Clocktower in after a £600,000 refurb. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 The Clocktower Castle Carvery has undergone a £600,000 refurb 2 The pub is re-introducing an easy-to-use kiosk system As part of the makeover, the pub has installed easy-to-use kiosks designed to speed up service and cut down wait times. Customers can now skip the line and head straight to one of the new digital kiosks, powered by Acrelec, to order their carvery, pay on screen, and track their order status in real-time. The change came after punters complained about long waits during busy periods. Now guests have three ways to order: at the kiosk, at the counter, or via the app for at-table ordering. The Clocktower reopened on Friday June 20 with a fresh new look and a revamped Castle Carvery menu. It now serves up slow-cooked topside beef, leg of lamb, and vegan wellingtons – all with trimmings like locally sourced veggies and crispy roasties. There are gluten-free options too. And it's not just the mains getting a glow-up, there's a dessert station packed with pick 'n' mix sweets, fresh donuts, cakes, and even ice cream floats. General Manager Dena Etheridge said: 'We're thrilled to welcome everyone back. "The new menu still offers the great value we're known for – but now with even more choice, better service, and added fun for the whole family.' Pub With A 'Floating' Beer Garden By The Beach The family-friendly pub opens daily from 11.30am, with a soft-play area for kids open from 9am on weekends. Self-checkouts were first introduced more than 10 years ago in major supermarkets and now they are available at several retailers and food outlets. McDonald's first introduced kiosks in 2015 and it now has more than 70,000 machines worldwide, according to Retail Technology Review. Burger King, KFC and Leon also have similar systems in place in the majority of their restaurants. Most recently, Subway announced the launch of new self-service kiosks, a brand-new app, along with an improved loyalty programme. But not everyone is a fan of the new tech, with fans regularly taking to social media to moan about them, and some voicing fears that self-service kiosks could have an impact on jobs. On X, formerly known as Twitter, one user said: "I haven't been in a McDonald's in years. "They put those kiosks in and they were infuriating to use. I have tons of other choices for food." One KFC fan recently wrote: "KFC's kiosks are complete trash!" While others prefer self-service systems, with one McDonald's shopper writing: "I always use kiosks and self-checkout if possible. "Combined with Apple Pay, it's seamless, easy, and quick! I actually prefer these over anything else." The digital move comes as pubs across the country battle rising costs, with some landlords warning that beer prices are creeping up just to stay afloat. New research by CAMRA shows pints of BrewDog Punk IPA have shot up from £5.64 to £6.34 since January. Camden Hells is up too, now averaging £6.34. The average pint now costs £5.17 – up from £5.08 earlier this year. CAMRA chairman Ash Corbett-Collins said: 'It's frustrating for drinkers to see prices rising again – but it's often the only way pubs can survive.' With prices going up, venues like The Clocktower are hoping upgrades like faster service, digital convenience, and family-friendly perks will keep punters coming back for more.

It now seems that Hull are reasonably well placed to get a deal done, and it's believed a financial package between the two parties has been 'broadly agreed' Norwich confident over Darling Norwich City are reportedly growing increasingly confident of securing a deal for out-of-contract Swansea star Harry Darling. A number of sides have expressed an interest in the 25-year-old, who's just confirmed he will be leaving the club. As well as the Canaries, Birmingham City, Wrexham, Sheffield United, and Rangers have all expressed an interest over the last few weeks. Swansea have improved their squad with the arrival of Cameron Burgess on a free transfer from Ipswich Town, however. And Norfolk-based publication The Pink 'Un now claims Norwich, under the leadership of Darling's former boss Liam Manning, are leading the race. The report claims that while a deal hasn't yet been signed, the club are "in the process of finalising a deal that will see them secure his services". Fan forum raises thousands for charity Swansea City have confirmed their recent fans' forum and charity fundraising evening raised £4,000 for charity. The amount, which was raised during the event at Camarthen Town last week, will be split between Swansea Bay Health Charity's Cwtsh Clos appeal and The GO Jones Scholarship. Supporters raised £1,645 on the night, while Swansea City Supporters Trust Chair Dave Dalton contributed an additional £1,000, with an additional £1,355 donated by Swansea Building Society. 'It's been a fantastic evening, and has raised some great money for two really good charitable causes as well,' said Paul Ashley-Jones Carmarthen Town AFC communities director. Sign up to our Swansea City newsletter here. Article continues below 'The scholarship funds academy places for disadvantaged children, and the money raised tonight will help fund a large number of places next season and we're delighted.' Swansea City Supporters' Trust Chair, Dave Dalton, added: "It's been great to help arrange this event on behalf of Carmarthen Town. It's something the Trust are always looking to do more of as it undoubtedly helps supporters feel a closer connection to the club and directly ask questions that are important to them. "To be able to add a fundraising element to the forum worked amazingly well too and to be able to raise £4,000 with the help of everyone who attended plus the generosity of Alun Williams and the Swansea Building Society made it an evening to remember."

Missing Norfolk sailor found dead; sailor in pretrial confinement
A Norfolk-based sailor who went missing almost two weeks ago has been found dead, and another sailor is in pretrial confinement in connection with the case, Navy investigators said Tuesday. The body of Culinary Specialist Seaman Angelina Petra Resendiz, 21, was discovered Monday by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service in a wooded area in Norfolk, Virginia, NCIS said in a statement. Resendiz, 21, assigned to the Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer James E. Williams, disappeared May 29 after being last seen at her barracks in Miller Hall on Naval Station Norfolk. NCIS has placed a sailor in pretrial confinement in connection with Resendiz's death, with charges under the Uniform Code of Military Justice pending, the service confirmed. NCIS did not provide additional details, including the sailor's identity, citing an ongoing investigation. 'NCIS remains committed to uncovering the facts surrounding the tragic death of Seaman Resendiz to ensure accountability and justice,' NCIS said. After Resendiz vanished, the Virginia State Police issued a critically missing adult alert, hoping for the public's assistance in discovering her whereabouts. Publicist Kimberly Wimbish issued a statement to local media on behalf of the Resendiz family after a body was initially recovered and prior to the NCIS's confirmation that the body was that of Resendiz. 'Angelina is a loving, compassionate, and devoted individual who has always prioritized the well-being of her family and those around her,' the statement read. 'Her absence has caused immense grief for all who know and love her.' The NCIS investigation remains ongoing, in collaboration with Navy leadership, the Norfolk Police Department, Virginia State Police, Virginia Search and Rescue and federal and local law enforcement authorities.

EXCLUSIVE: Video of Z104's ‘Shaggy' arrested at Virginia Beach crime scene
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. (WAVY) — A popular local radio DJ was arrested after police said he showed signs of intoxication while trying to enter a crime scene Wednesday morning. According to officials, 43-year-old Brandon Stokes, also knows by his stage name 'Shaggy' on Norfolk-based Z104's morning show, was charged with DUI and obstruction of justice. Police said that just after 9:30 a.m., officers encountered Stokes in the 4600 block of Honeygrove Road, saying he was showing signs of intoxication while attempting to enter a nearby crime scene, in which officers shot a man brandishing a replica handgun at them. VBPD: Suspect brandishing replica handgun shot by officers at storage unit on Honeygrove Rd. A spokesperson with VBPD told WAVY 10 that officers saw Stokes arrive to the scene driving a vehicle. Court documents state that Stokes attempted to drive through the crime scene, claiming that he is allowed to drive through since he owns property near scene. Officers told Stokes multiple times he was unable to drive through the scene. Stokes was said to have become 'belligerent' and using profane language, saying to officers at one point, 'you wanna bet?' One of the officers at the scene noted that Stokes was slurring his words while speaking, and asked Stokes if he had been drinking. Around an hour after officers initially placed Stokes under arrest for DUI, they conducted a breathalyzer test, which resulted in a .18 BAC — more than double the limit for driving in Virginia. 10 On Your Side was at the scene, where they saw Stokes being put in handcuffs. Stokes has since bonded out of jail. WAVY 10 has reached out to Stokes and are waiting to hear back. Continue to check for updates. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
