Sister Act at The Hare & Hounds

February 13, 2026

New business owners Mandy Limbrick & Nickie Butler are sisters who grew up in Sonning Common.  They have both been working as close protection officers, working with high net worth families across the world. Nickie’s daughter Emma is helping to run the pub, and her son Dan is also lending a hand on occasion.

Since taking on the pub in the autumn, Mandy & Nickie have made sure it is at the heart of the local community that they know and love.

Regular live music, a Sunday Roast offer that has been widely praised, hosting the local Women’s Institute Christmas Lunch and a Pub Quiz are just some of the activities that are keeping local residents entertained and looking forward to their next visit to this welcoming, buzzy pub.

Well done to the team on a flying start and good luck for 2026!
