Hide AdThe Priory in Bourton Way has an adjoining kids play area, Fuzzy Ed’s, making it a valued place for families in the town. It’s become a staple of the town’s eateries, and says it is ‘a real part of the local community, proud to help fundraise for charities’.
The establishment was purchased by Sizzling Pubs after changing ownership a few times in the 25 years it has been open, and its kitchen manager has been there since long before the business changed hands for the first time. Danny started as a second chef and within two years was promptly promoted to kitchen manager, which is a post he still holds to this day.
The menu has changed significantly since his arrival, adopting a more diverse and vegan-friendly approach while still serving pub favourites like hunter’s chicken, steaks and burgers.
The Priory is soon to become a training facility for others to follow in Danny’s footsteps and he will have a hand in assisting new recruits to – hopefully – be as prosperous as he continues to be.
