I have been drinking here on and off for over 40 years. Many of the customers have done also! Itâs great to be able to meet up here and have a drink and a chat with my âoldâ friends and to meet some of the new generations of customers.
The pub itself has a long history, having been managed by The Cooksonâs family for probably one hundred years or so.
There have been several managers since and a few years ago Cooksonâs almost came to the same fate as many other Pubs in the area!
In these difficult times âCookiesâ is still thankfully open, mainly due to the passion shown by the landlady Michelle and her fabulous team.
Not to mention the loyal customers who support them and their beloved local.
I Love this Pub and hope it can stay open for a long time to come.
Please give it a try, look on Cooksonâs Bridge Facebook site to see whatâs going on there through the week. Go on, support The Cooksonâs, buy a few drinks and meet new friends. You wonât regret it.
Without our support we could loose this fabulous pub forever....
