The Olive Branch, Arundel

As of Monday 20 September 2010 the Olive Branch is under new management. Nick and his team will be turning round the fortunes of this ailing pub. He will be doing this by talking to local village people and asking what they want from their pub. He has his own ideas and Nick is a local person who understands the needs of a village such as Yapton. When refurbishment of the kitchen has taken place, The Olive Branch will be offering traditional pub food and reasonable prices. As the pub is allowed to open from 08:30 (but not for alcohol sales) they will utilise this time to serve tea, coffee and breakfasts. Traditional homemade pub food will be available from 12:00 until 14:30 and evening meals with daily specials from 18:00 until 21:30. They will be offering Sky TV to show sporting events. Thursday will be the weekly pub quiz night with free food for those taking part. An in-house poker league, darts and pool will be arranged. They will hold twice monthly karaoke events on Saturdays and a monthly open mike event on a Sunday. A Christmas raffle and New Year’s Eve party will also be taking place
