Warrington Shout Outs 📣 

☕️ Toast in Latchford is now under new ownership. Emma and Chris have taken the reins and are excited to build on what made Toast so loved since it opened in the old railway building in 2021.

☕️ Coffee House has opened another Warrington coffee house on Wilderspool Causeway. If you already know them, this is a new place to stop for coffee on that side of town.

🤓 Geek Retreat Warrington is running a Pokémon Kids Club every Saturday and Sunday from 11am. It’s a chance for kids to trade cards, and meet other Pokémon fans.

Warrington Park Run Turned 12 🥳 

Warrington Parkrun turned 12 years old this week, and it celebrated in proper style.

On a cold morning that could easily have kept people in bed, 739 runners (the second ever largest attendance), joggers, and walkers turned up to mark the occasion. That’s the second-highest attendance ever, which says a lot about what Parkrun has become in Warrington.

If you ever needed proof that Warrington loves showing up for things that matter, this was it.

Is this Warrington’s favourite pub? 🍺 

We also shared a short video this week featuring what many would say is Warrington’s favourite pub, The Ferry Tavern.

It was very popular on the socials. If you’re new to Warrington, it’s definitely a pub worth checking out.

Thanks 👍️
