Zoe Bowley, managing director at Greene King pubs, said “There’s something special about a British pub garden – whether the sun is shining, or the April showers are in full swing!

“Pubs are more than just places to grab a drink; they’re where friendships are made, stories are shared, and communities come together.

“That’s why it’s so important to keep supporting our locals and making the most of every moment spent in the pub garden together.

“With ‘When It Rains, We Pour’, we’re embracing the great British drizzle and rewarding those who do the same.

“So, grab your mates, enjoy a free pint on us, and celebrate the spirit of the pub garden – whatever the weather!”
