A popular Scunthorpe community pub is temporarily closing to undergo a major £330,000 refurbishment.
The Iron Forge pub on Burringham Road is set to be closed from Monday, January 20 until Thursday, February 13 while the revamp is carried out, in which more than £334,000 has been invested.
The makeover will include a newly-created bar area with 4K big-screen TVs, Sky Sports and TNT, as well as a new dartboard and state-of-the-art AV system. There will also be a new dedicated and inclusive family lounge, designed around the needs of families.
The much-loved pub – which is operated by Marston’s – will continue to serve its carvery buffet with slow-cooked meats and vegetarian options, homemade Yorkshire puddings, crispy roast potatoes, stuffing and unlimited vegetables.
Its kids’ menu will also continue to serve up little servings of pub favourites for over 5s and a ‘build-your-own’ option for under 5s.

“From grabbing a quick drink at the bar to catching up with friends, or savouring a family meal together, there’s truly something for everyone.”
