Beer gardens are all the rage these days. But what makes a great beer garden? There are many factors that come into play, but we will discuss some of the most important ones in this blog post. If you are looking to open your own beer garden, or if you just want to visit one that is sure to please, keep reading!
The Service
The service is one of the most important aspects of a beer garden. You want to make sure that your waitstaff is attentive and knowledgeable about the beers that you are serving. They should be able to answer any questions that your guests may have, and they should be able to keep the drinks flowing smoothly.
Sometimes with large beer gardens service can be slow and it can take a long time to walk from the beer garden to the bar.
Here at The Mitre the beer garden is close enough to keep those drinks flowing and the pizza warm!
The Atmosphere
The atmosphere of a beer garden is also very important. You want it to be relaxed and comfortable, with plenty of seating and an open layout. The last thing you want is to feel cramped or uncomfortable.
Here at the Mitre we have comfortable picnic type tables and benches that can fit a lot of people around them comfortably.
The People
The beer garden should also have a good mix of people. You don’t want it to be too rowdy, but you also don’t want it to be too quiet. The perfect atmosphere is one where people are enjoying themselves and socializing, but not so much that it feels like a party.
We feel like we’ve achieved this here at the Mitre.
We love our patrons and have met some amazing people here in Richmond.
The Food
Of course, the food is also important in a beer garden. You want to make sure that there are plenty of options for your guests, including both light snacks and heartier fare. And of course, the food must pair well with the beer!
At The Mitre we offer a variety of pizzas and other pub classics that go perfectly with our wide selection of beers. We also have a range of vegan and vegetarian options, so that everyone can enjoy our food.
The Location
The location of a beer garden is also very important. You want it to be easily accessible, but not so close to the hustle and bustle of the city that it feels like you’re in the middle of everything.
The Mitre is located in Richmond, London and is away from the hustle and bustle of London life.
This makes it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a beer garden.
The Drinks
Of course, the most important aspect of a beer garden is the beer! You need to make sure that you have a good selection of both local and international brews, so that there is something for everyone to enjoy.
At The Mitre we have a wide selection of both local and international beers, as well as a range of other drinks for those who don’t like beer.
Additionally, we feature a range of specials throughout the week, ensuring that each visit offers an opportunity to indulge in something fresh and exciting.
Now that you know what makes a great beer garden, all that’s left to do is visit one! And if you’re ever in Richmond, London be sure to stop by The Mitre. We would love to show you what makes our beer garden so special.
Cheers!
