About Us

Here is just a little info to let you get to know us better...

History

Here is little potted history of our pub and the local area... if you have a spare minute or two and maybe a cup of tea (or is that a G&T), we think it's well worth read.

If you'd like to put a name to a face, allow us to introduce you to the crew...


Front of house

Blake

Manager

Blake is always on hand to welcome you at the bar with a warming smile and his quick banter. Whilst not at work he enjoys watching his beloved football team Accrington Stanley (who are they) in the Jack Barrett Memorial Stand which we think is quite appropriate as it is named after his great grandad, a founding member of the modern day Stanley. Blake is a big family man and cherishes time spent with his, especially his little sister Erin.

Emma

Deputy Manager

After spending every spare hour where she wasn't studying for her A levels, asking for extra hours in her previous role as a waitress, we thought it was only right to reward her...with more hours. Emma's proudest moment at work was teaching herself to pour the perfect rosetta in the crema of a latte - and never fails to disappoint by arriving to each shift 15 minutes early to brew up! Living in Australia for a year is right at the top of her bucket list, where we can picture her on a rooftop bar in Melbourne city centre sipping a blood orange gin & lemonade.


Kitchen

Chris

Head Chef

Chris was born in Germany whilst his Dad was stationed in the Air Force. Chris came to us having successfully ran the kitchen at another Brunning and Price pub, Old Hall in Sandbach for three years. He loves to spend his free time with his daughters, loves Bolton FC and has a strange affliction to the word bacon.

Ebi

Chef

Ebi has worked at the Clog and Billycock for over six years, and lovingly makes all our pies. A father of three, Ebi is a keen DIYer and gardener and a wealth of knowledge to the chefs as he has been cooking for over 40 years. A true gentleman and a very popular member of the kitchen crew.


Maintenance

Karen

Gardener/Maintenance Person

Karen, or as we like to call her Kaz, Mrs Kindred or green fingers. If you've seen our beautiful hanging baskets, pub plants or outside barrels then you'll understand why we love her so much. When Kaz isn't working she is either out walking her two little dogs Ralph and Oscar or having a cold glass of pink fizz... Sometimes both at the same time, but no judgements here!
