Family-Friendly Easter Events
Transform your pub into a family destination with Easter egg hunts that encourage longer stays and higher spending. Create age-appropriate treasure hunts throughout your venue and garden areas, offering prizes that include meal vouchers or branded merchandise. Consider partnering with local businesses to sponsor prizes, creating community connections while reducing costs.
Host Easter bonnet competitions for children and adults alike, with categories for most creative, funniest, and traditional designs. These interactive events generate social media buzz and encourage repeat visits from participating families.
Seasonal Menu Innovations
Develop limited-time Easter specials featuring spring ingredients and traditional holiday fare. Hot cross bun bread and butter pudding, lamb dishes with seasonal vegetables, and Easter-themed cocktails create memorable dining experiences that justify premium pricing.
Offer special Easter Sunday lunch packages with fixed pricing for families. Include children’s portions and activities to keep young diners entertained while parents enjoy their meals and drinks.
Digital Marketing Strategies
Leverage social media platforms to showcase your Easter preparations. Share behind-the-scenes content of menu development, venue decorations, and staff preparations. User-generated content from previous Easter events builds authenticity and trust with potential customers.
Create Easter-themed email campaigns targeting your existing customer database. Highlight special offers, event schedules, and booking incentives. Personalized messages based on previous visit history increase engagement rates significantly.
Community Partnerships
Collaborate with local schools, churches, and community groups to host Easter fundraising events. These partnerships expand your reach while demonstrating community involvement, enhancing your pub’s reputation as a local gathering place.
Organize charity Easter drives, collecting donations for local food banks or children’s organizations. These initiatives generate positive publicity while attracting socially conscious customers.
Used daily at Teal Farm Pub, Washington NE38
The Pub Command Centre handles everything in this article — without a spreadsheet.
Wet GP%, dry GP%, labour costs, beer line cleaning logs (12 lines), HACCP temperature checks, stock ordering, weekly P&!mp;L. All in one system. Used every shift at Teal Farm where labour runs at 15.1% against a UK pub average of 25-30%.
On a pub taking £900k a year, running labour at 15% instead of 25% is worth roughly £90,000. That is what tracking it daily — every shift, every week — actually looks like.
£97 once. No subscription. No monthly fee. Works on any phone, tablet or laptop. Setup under 10 minutes. Built and used by a Marston’s CRP licensee with a 5-star EHO rating and 180 covers.
