The Lardicake pub has reopened its doors on Adelaide Road after being closed for several months.

New landlady Cree opened the popular local pub on Saturday 9th May and has been given a 5 year tenancy after completing her 6 month probation.

Opening hours are Monday to Thursday from 12:00pm till 11:00pm, Friday and Saturday from 12:00pm till 12:00am and on Sunday 12:00pm till 10:00pm.

The Lardicake opened in 1981 as Andover’s only “exclusively hand-pumped pub”. The correct spelling of the pub is Lardicake (not Lardy Cake, or Lardi Cake); so-called after the former name of Adelaide Road, “Lardicake Road”.
