Lunches and evening meals are being served outside at the iconic Creg Ny Baa on the TT course for the first time since the coronavirus lockdown in March.

But there are strict procedures in place to ensure the pub is adhering to government guidelines.

The pub on the Mountain Road near Onchan has sent this message to customers: ’Please note in line with government guidelines we are not open just for alcoholic drinks, you must have a substantial meal.

’We are open for coffee and cake also or soft drinks. It is very important that you are from the same household per table also. Please note we will not be open for dining inside. We will be monitoring the weather and open when the weather is suitable.’
