We love pubs with stories to tell. We keep their character, add a dash of fresh thinking and shape them for the communities they serve. It is all about craft, care and quiet confidence, creating places people are proud to call their local.
This Is Our Story
Emerging from the challenges of COVID-19, RedCat was founded with a clear mission to revitalise hospitality across England. With many pubs facing closure, we saw an opportunity to help them not just survive, but thrive. We carefully selected pubs with unique character and history, preserving their charm while adding thoughtful modern touches to enhance the guest experience. Recognising pubs as vital community hubs, we have created welcoming spaces where people can connect, celebrate and
make memories. From roaring fires to summer gardens, each pub reflects our belief that hospitality is more than food and drink. It is about relationships, shared moments and belonging. This drives us to invest in quality, care for our teams and ensure every visit is memorable.

Crafted Drinks
Our drinks are quietly confident, crafted ales, crisp wines, and spirits mixed with care rather than show. A cocktail here isn’t flashy, but balanced and thoughtful, built to suit the moment. These are honest pours, full of character, and chosen to complement both food and feeling. Nothing shouts, but everything lingers, a gentle nod to quality and a lasting impression that feels just right.
Simply Great Food
We keep it simple, flavour leads the way. Think steaks seared with care, carveries that bring everyone together, and Sunday specials that feel like a warm hug. Our chefs craft vegan dishes with the same devotion as the classics, and a few continental favourites find their place too. Each plate is a little celebration, honest food, thoughtfully prepared, with heart, flair, and that quiet confidence that lets the ingredients speak. All that remains is to enjoy.

Pub People
The pride of RedCat Pub People lies in thoughtful service, quiet confidence and creating spaces where every guest feels genuinely welcome.
RedCat Rooms
Pub rooms are crafted with purpose. Whether nestled in a city street, overlooking the coast, or tucked into the countryside, each space reflects its surroundings with quiet detail. Every room is thoughtfully designed, comfortably appointed but not too fancy, offering restful charm that feels personal and never generic. It’s the kind of place where you can drop your bags, breathe out, and feel instantly at ease, because comfort, here, is always considered.
Diverse by Design
RedCat Independent Pubs are as varied and characterful as the communities they serve, carveries with generous roasts, gastropubs full of flavour, buzzing city spots, and charming countryside inns with rooms. Each one is independently operated, yet all share the same heart: great food made with care, proper drinks poured with pride, and a warm welcome that instantly makes you feel at home, whether you’re popping in for a pint, staying the night, or gathering with friends.
It’s The Most Wonderful Time Of The Year
Christmas arrives with a twinkle and a glass raised in cheer. From the scents of mulled wine, open fires and festive feasts served crafted with care, every detail is wrapped in genuine warmth and flair. Whether staying overnight or just popping in for one of our many celebrations, expect good tasty food, great company, and that unmistakable glow of a Christmas well spent.
