The Dorothy Pax at Victoria Quays in Sheffield City Centre is currently operating as a shop for take home drinks but has now revealed how things will operate there when the government gives pubs the go ahead to reopen..
We’re currently making plans to welcome you back to the Pax Beer Garden as per current guidelines set out by the government. As it stands at the moment this will be Saturday 4th July.
As you can appreciate we’re proceeding with caution as this may change. Our safety procedures will exceed over and above government guidelines. The safety of staff and customers is our absolute top priority. Therefore we will be serving delicious beverages in our socially distanced beer garden under a table booking system only whereby drinks are ordered via an app.
It’s going to be a while yet until we can get back to pre-lockdown party times, but we have been closely following advice and guidelines throughout. This policy outlines what we understand will be a safe way for us and you to get back to a sense of normality whilst protecting us all and exceeding any government guidelines for when we are allowed to reopen the best beer garden in Sheffield. We are so very excited and from what you’ve told us you are too… but we must be safe.
In order to provide the safest environment possible, drinks will be served at the Pax only under a table booking system in the beer garden to facilitate safe social distancing for all of us. You will be able to book a table for a slot for multiples of 2 hours at no cost of course. But we’d ask you to do so, so we can ensure we’re here to look after you Pax Purfect. Rest assured all tables and benches will be deep cleaned from one booking to the next and we will also supply a hand sanitizing station for each table. The capacity of the tables, for you, your small humans and hounds will follow government guidance at that time.
Please try to arrive at the booking on time, by introducing yourselves at the door, then you’ll be shown to your table. For those arriving later in the evening on those sunny days, we recommend the “upper-decks” where sunlight lasts longer (table no 16 to 30). For those who want some shade we recommend those in front of the bar no (table no 1 to 15). Cancellation of tables can be made online, please let us know in good time so we can allow a fellow customer to book them if something crops up.
As all tables are outside, please bring everything you need whether that be sun-cream/a hat/coat/umbrella/giraffe/
