The Burrow at the Blues – New bar opens post lockdown
Bedford Blues are pleased to announce a new and exciting joint venture with Burrow Venues at Goldington Road, The Burrow at the Blues, opening post lockdown.
The new bar and hospitality venue will add another fantastic experience to match day, whilst also operating every Thursday to Sunday all year round.
Located in the South East corner of Goldington Road, The Burrow at the Blues has been under construction for the past few weeks and will officially open following the conclusion of the upcoming national lockdown on Thursday 3rd December.
Bedford Blues Chief Operating Officer, Gareth Alred said: “We’re really excited by this latest concept that we are working on with Matt and Alex from Burrow Venues. We hope this will give supporters and local residents alike, a new venue and unique bar experience to enjoy all year round.
“We were also very keen to build on the momentum we have created with the Blues Beer Garden and Blues Oktoberfest. Whilst lockdown has postponed the launch slightly, we are looking forward to Christmas at The Burrow and in the Blues Marquee, for our Festive Fun dates.
“When we are finally allowed and able to return to match days at Goldington Road, this venue will become our latest hospitality offering and provides a great view of the pitch, quality street food and will offer a slightly different range of beers thanks to our partners at Marston’s.”
The new venue will offer a socially distanced and relaxed atmosphere for all to enjoy, including a street food inspired menu alongside drinks from The Imperial Bar, featuring a wide selection of spirits, wines, draught products and softs.
A fully seated and heated venue, the opening of The Burrow at the Blues will be subject to numerous COVID-19 related safety measures and in line with the Bedford Blues Risk Management Plan.
Once open, access to the venue will only be permitted through the Bushmead Gate, opposite Bushmead Road. Unfortunately, there will be no parking available inside Goldington Road.
