Village Pub Reborn as Community Hub | Leicester News
Description
After seven years of silence, The New Storey pub in Osgathorpe has reopened—now renamed and revitalized by Michelle Bates and Russell Boam. Since taking over last year, they’ve turned the village staple into a buzzing social hub with karaoke, quizzes, street food, and even a new community room called The Orchard Suite, honoring a beloved local. This space hosts everything from parish meetings to craft workshops and games, drawing people together across generations. Experts hail it as a model for rural pubs, proving how local spots can rebuild community ties and boost well-being—one pint, one game, one shared laugh at a time.
