Oak Taverns has opened its second joint venture with Punch Taverns after a £500,000 investment in the Queen Charlotte, Windsor .

The Church Lane pub, formerly The Blarney Stone, is the 22nd pub to be opened by Thame-based, family-owned pub company Oak Taverns.

Punch’s new business development manager Sam Price said: “Oak Taverns has an excellent reputation for superior pubs specialising in cask beer and good quality food. We enjoy working with the team and are confident the Queen Charlotte will be a success.”

Oak Taverns’ director Simon Collinson said: “The Queen Charlotte is in a fantastic location in the heart of Windsor. Our focus is on offering customers the key elements of a traditional British pub – from a menu of quality, classic dishes to an extensive range of real ales and craft beers as well as a gin offering which we believe is unrivalled in the area.”
