  • Pint in a pub April 2025 - Slaters Arms - Corris Thursday 24 April 2025 17:00 Slaters Arms

    This month’s pint in a pub will be in the Slaters Arms, Corris on Thursday 24 April from 5.00pm until 7.00pm.

    Bus times to follow.

    Corris is a grade II listed traditional freehouse with accommodation. Evening meals, Sunday lunch and takeaways. Three ever-changing cask ales (try them all on a third pint platter) and real ciders.

    Our pint in a pub socials are informal events that offer a chance to get together and enjoy a drink with fellow local CAMRA members, and you can stay for as little or as long as suits you.

    Hope to see you there but, if you can’t make this one, why not make a note in your diary for the last Thursday of each month and keep an eye out for the email with the details of future events. If you would like to suggest a venue for a pint in the pub social, please let me know.
