Our Meet the Team series is back! In this series, we shine a spotlight on the fantastic people who make Castle Rock what it is!
If you’re new here, in this series we introduce you to one of our brilliant Castle Rockians, giving you a behind-the-scenes look at the people who pour your pints, keep things running smoothly, and who make your favourite pubs special.
This time, we’re heading over to the Barley Twist to meet Pat, their incredible general manager!
Position: General manager
How long have you worked at Castle Rock for?: 3.5 years
What’s the most rewarding part of your job?: “Giving people a place that isn’t work or home, where they can be comfortable with an excellent pint, bottle or glass of something delicious.”
Do you have any hobbies?: “Playing card games and learning new things.”
What’s your favourite drink?: “Something red or brown on cask, nicely malty and cascades beautifully. Something you’d see an old man enjoying after a tough day in the garden!”
What’s one fun fact about you that most people don’t know?: “I have a life time membership to a board games café in Sheffield because I won a tournament for a brand new game called Quorto, a mix of Chess, Connect 4 and Noughts and Crosses.”
Waiting for a train? Why not pop into the Barley Twist and say hi to Pat and the rest of their amazing team whilst you wait! Make sure to try one of their delicious pork pies or scotch eggs whilst you’re there – you won’t regret it!
See you next time!
