Time Differences

The Cowper Arms policy on late starting games and late openings:
The Cowper will show all possible games that kick off before 11pm, the bar will remain open with last orders at the 90th minute of the game, and the pub closing at the close of play.
Games that kick off at/after 11pm will not be shown in the pub.
An exception may be made for England games which start after 11pm. But we will take bookings and only open if the level of interest is worth opening the pub late. Please call the pub on 01438 714080 if you would like to book a seat.
