The Grantley Arms is a traditional pub steeped in history. Packed full of character, this charming pub has an active part of Wonersh Village for almost 500 years, serving both locals and visitors from afar.
Requirement
Atlas Contract Furniture was contacted by the landlord of The Grantley Arms to design and install banquette seating as part of the pubs 3-month long refurbishment. It was important to maximise seating as the pub is a popular eatery, but it was also important to give its design a contemporary twist without detracting from the pubs traditional and cosy ambience that patrons have always admired.
What we did
We designed and installed various deep button back banquette seating throughout the pub and restaurant areas to provide comfortable seating that visitors can kick back and relax on while enjoying a pint of special cask ale. We used different materials including leather and tweed cloth to add texture where there were painted walls and exposed brick. Both the bar and restaurant seating was built on wooden legs.
Result
We were delighted to provide a solution that met our clients brief. By blending contemporary designs with traditionally inspired fabrics and finishings, The Grantley Arms has a fresh new look that is still cosy and pub-like. Diners can enjoy comfortable benches and the pub has benefitted from seating that makes better use of its space.
