Landlord and Landlady Kevin and Sarah Reed - "The
Beehive is our fourth pub, so you couldn't say we're
short on experience. Before taking on The Beehive,
we were based in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, at The
Royal Standard for five months, our first Greene King
pub. Before that we were at the Vinetree Inn in the
picturesque village of Randwick, Stroud, in the county
of Gloucestershire. Our first pub was The Crown Inn,
set in the village of Colwall at the foot of the Malvern
Hills between Hereford and Worcester and was also
where we were married only a few short years ago."

"We have been holding the reins here since January 2000 and we are proud to have introduced a popular menu of predominantly home-made food. If you are thinking of visiting us it really would be worth giving us a ring, our cosy lounge really can fill up rapidly. Value for money is extremely important to us, we are not here to blow a hole in your pocket, we are sure you will be impressed with our prices, check out our Menu page. We also offer a daily Specials and Sweet menu or if a light meal will do, our baguettes are served straight from the oven - piping hot! Food features through the week include of course, a traditional Sunday Lunch and Senior Citizens Specials on Tuesday and Thursday Lunchtimes."

"As well as serving good home-made food, we are after all a pub! Which means a well stocked bar, with realistically priced ales, spirits and soft drinks. If you need a guarantee of excellence, our real ales were recently awarded the prestigeous 'Cask Marque Award For Excellence'. Greene King IPA is always available with a guest beer sitting alongside and a good choice of three lagers, Carling, Carlsberg and Stella Artois, plus Ruddles Smooth, Whitbread Mild, Strongbow and one of the best pints of Guinness around. (That is according to one of our customers, Guiness drinker - Chris Burnett!) If you have a taste for wine, we even offer Basin and Trough size glasses for wine on tap or there's a list of six bottled wines."

"We have a games area in the bar which houses a pool table and dart board. Cards, dominos and crib boards are always available by request. The pub supports a Monday night 8 & 9 ball pool team called, 'The Marksmen' (see the link below) and also a Thursday night 8 ball team."
Other weekly events include the R.A.F.A. Bingo on Tuesdays at 9pm, it's been going strong for 41 years and at 10p for life membership, really can't be bad. Its well attended by the local folk - there are no huge prizes - just a night of fun and socialising. New members are always welcome and no connection with the actual Royal Air Force Association is needed.

"It would be fair to say that when we took over The Beehive, there really was not much of a pub to start with, but after a touch of TLC, many hours with a screwdriver, hammer and the 240 volt 'big-boys-toys', the pub began to take shape and became clean and functional again. Since then, we and Greene King have jointly invested in a refurbishment of the bar, toilets and external redecoration. Oh yes, and we also reduced the three foot tall wilderness into a blooming nice beer garden! It would be wrong to say we did it all ourselves, many of our regular customers have given us the benefit of their services with gardening, plumbing, carpentry and electrical works." (Even Kevins Great Aunt Dawn came along from nearby North Walsham to set about the task of removing a forest of brambles!)
