Welcome to THE PIG – and The Village Pub
In January 2024, we acquired the 17th century Barnsley House hotel that is tucked away in the quintessential Cotswold’s village of Barnsley, just four miles from Cirencester. THE PIG – and The Village Pub offers guests a classic example of an English country garden that evolves with the seasons including a kitchen garden that will supply the produce found on our 25-mile menu.
We are delighted to announce the start of our recruitment for THE PIG – and The Village Pub and are seeking for Bar Staff to join our bar team.
The Role:
Our bars at THE PIG’s are unique! We smash, muddle, blend, shake and throw our way to making our guests the perfect drink. All of our cocktails are designed with the kitchen garden in mind. This provides the essential ingredients to infuse our locally sourced spirits. Our vodkas are infused by the herbs, flowers and berries from the kitchen garden, bacon is added to our bourbon and caramel to our rum. We are looking for Bar Staff that are enthusiastic and keen to learn, as well as having a passion for creating fun yet quality experiences for our guests.
