Here is a fun Halloween challenge to get your friends to dress up for a fun evening at one of London’s most iconic pubs turned spectacular scenes from 28 to 30 October. Green King pubs are great inspiration for a fantastic Halloween costume. You just need to dress up as one of the many Green King pub signs in London to claim your free drink.
The Coach & Horses pub, located in Mayfair in central London, kicked off Halloween already when guests turned up for food and drinks dressed in petrifying coach and horse’s costumes.
Bartenders at the Coach & Horses pub were left asking, “Why the long face?”, when they saw the horses, galloped into the pub in front of a variety of spooky coaches, to claim a free drink.
They say you can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink, but that wasn’t the case at the Coach & Horses as a group of them were seen drinking their deliciously refreshing pints whilst taking in the unique history of the long-standing venue.
Free drink from 28 – 30 October in London pubs
This follows the exciting announcement that the UK’s leading pub company and brewer, Greene King, will be giving out free drink vouchers in London from 28 – 30 October (T+C apply). Drinks range from a spooky Blood Orange G&T through to a refreshing pint.
Fun selfie boards will be on hand in all pubs and those in the most creative outfits can take a picture and upload it to their socials, using the hashtag #GKPubSigns, for a chance to win a £1,200 bar tab and use of a private space in one of our pubs. Winners will also be treated to a box of Greene King beers delivered straight to their door.
Greene King wants London to ‘Come Back Inn’ this Halloween, so get dressed up and visit one of the many pubs! Whether it’s a Silver Cross in Whitehall, a Punch & Judy in Covent Garden, or a Sherlock Holmes in St James, this is the perfect opportunity to rally up friends for a Halloween challenge like no other.
Nik Burniki, general manager at The Coach & Horses at Greene King said, “Pubs have been part of the fabric of London for hundreds of years, providing a pint and a place to get together. After the last 18 months, let’s be honest, we never knew how much we could miss a pint! So, with £1,200 up for grabs, you and your friends better hurry down – I can’t wait to see everyone dressed up!”
As Halloween weekend approaches, now is the ideal time to head out and learn the rich history of the Greene King pubs. Whether that’s the 300 years old, The Globe, located in Marylebone, which is said to still be spooked by the dead landlord William Thorton or the Marlborough Head in Mayfair that stands on a site once used to execute thousands of criminals between the 12th and 18th Centuries. Plan your spooky evening around Greene King’s most haunted pubs.
