Watching Clarkson's Farm got us thinking... 🤔

Jeremy was talking about all the things that mysteriously disappear from pubs, and honestly... we felt that. 😂

Over the years we've had:

🍴 Cutlery
🍺 Glasses
🧂 Salt & pepper pots
🖼️ Prints (actually taken out of the frames!)
🚻 Batteries (removed from the back of air fresheners!)

We know most of it is comical (we hope 😅), but every item has to be replaced and the costs soon add up for small businesses.

So, what's the strangest thing you've ever seen disappear from a pub, restaurant or hotel?

Come and grab your pint of hawkstone here at The Gates 🍺
