Golden Hind Pub's Massive Sports Makeover

0:00On March 31st, a pub and kingstanding called the Golden Hind just got a massive glow-up with a 271,700 pound investment turning it into a grandstand sports spot that feels like being at the stadium. It reopened on March 25th, and they had community heroes, Shaz Phillips and Mark Smith pull the first pint. Shaz lost her son in a tragic accident last year and has long backed the place while Mark runs a charity and memory of his partner, who battled cancer and worked there. Locals are buzzing because the makeover packs giant TV screens, killer sound systems, tiered seating for perfect views, and even outdoor screens with a new app to order food and drinks without missing a play. Now it's loaded with sports memorabilia, they're asking folks to donate more to honor local stars, plus starboards, pool tables, leagues, new bar grab, fresh drinks and two pint cups and black cards for teams giving free chips and win bonuses.

1:00Martin's chose this pub for its tight ties to sports teams and charities, and the partners say the vibe is electric with full crowds soaking in the games from football to F1, keeping that real community spirit alive.
