A Beacon of partnership sparks a new addition for Loughborough

A joint investment of £105,000 between Everards and Malcom has brought a great new space for the local community to enjoy, to life.

Malcolm York, the business owner of The Beacon Inn pub in Loughborough, is delighted to open the doors to the new Beacon Brasserie.

The Brasserie is a new addition to the popular pub The Beacon Inn, on Beacon Road, which Malcolm took over and relaunched in July 2021.

A joint investment of £105,000 between Everards and Malcolm has brought a great new space for the local community to enjoy, to life. It has also created six new jobs and three apprenticeship opportunities helping local people gain experience in the world of hospitality.

Taking on the Everards pub as an independent business owner, Malcolm set about creating a great venue for all to enjoy.

The pub offers a warm and friendly atmosphere, a superb array of drinks, along with a menu of well-executed pub classics using locally sourced ingredients and a calendar of events to keep everyone entertained.

Having some experience with coffee in the past, Malcolm also introduced his own roasted barrister-style coffee, which went down a treat and encouraged more people to use the pub for breakfast and an afternoon cuppa, which is what led to the addition of the brasserie.

Malcolm shares, “I saw so much potential in The Beacon. I really wanted to give it a new lease of life and a new direction to meet the needs of the community.
