A Wiltshire pub has expanded its offering to the local community with the opening of a new café. The Mallard, located in Lyneham, has launched the Lyneham Lounge, creating a dedicated daytime space for residents to meet and socialise.
Natalie and Nathan Evans, who have managed the pub as tenants of Wadworth Brewery for the past six years, have introduced the café as part of their ongoing efforts to develop the venue as a central hub for the village. The couple operates the business alongside their three children, Jordan, Jessie, and Ellis.
The Lyneham Lounge serves as an addition to the existing pub facilities, with the owners aiming to provide a new reason for locals to visit during the day. The café offers food and coffee throughout the morning and early afternoon from Monday to Saturday.

The pub maintains its evening service throughout the week, closing at 11.30pm from Monday to Thursday, at midnight on Saturday, and at 10pm on Sunday. Mrs Evans expressed that the opening of the café marks an exciting new chapter for the family business, which has been part of the village landscape for more than half a decade.
