Hydes reopens Boughton’s The Mount Inn following refurb
This latest refurbishment project forms part of an ongoing £10m investment programme across the Hydes’ estate over the next few years

Hydes Brewery has reopened The Mount Inn in Boughton, Chester, following a full exterior and interior refurbishment.
This latest refurbishment project forms part of an ongoing £10m investment programme across the Hydes’ estate over the next few years.
Opened in time for the forthcoming summer of sport, including the Euros and the Paris Olympics, the refurbishment of the local put includes an extensive exterior redecoration to feature a tiered multi-level beer garden with new decking and a terrace overlooking the River Dee, complete with new garden furniture, benches, planters and garden features.
The exterior makeover has more than doubled the previous capacity of the outside seating area, while a refresh of the pub’s front exterior has enhanced the establishment’s appeal.
Inside has benefited from new furniture, the installation of state-of-the-art TV screens, and the toilets have been relocated to allow for a more spacious seating area which has increased the interior capacity of the pub by at least 30.
James Gornall, manager of The Mount Inn, said: “I’ve been running The Mount Inn for around 16 months and I just love it. I love it even more now that Hydes delivered such a high quality refurbishment that has truly revitalised it. Many of the regular customers have been looking forward to the refurb and they’re over the moon with the new look and feel.
“The improvements are already paying off and we’re pulling in more and more customers every week. With our fantastic beer garden and terrace, I can’t wait for the weather to pick up so everyone can make the most of our hospitality and the surroundings.”
Adam Mayers, managing director of Hydes Brewery, added: “We’re delighted to see The Mount Inn revitalised with an inviting new look and feel, but still retaining its distinct sense of heritage, which is important to us and all of our customers.
“Hydes remains fully committed to all of the pubs across its estate and this refurb is the latest in our ongoing programme of planned redesigns and refurbishments. Providing our customers with a quality, memorable experience is a key consideration and we know they won’t be disappointed.”
