Food Runner

Our Group

At Ardent Pub Group, everything starts with people. Whether you’re walking into one of our pubs or joining our team, you’ll be met with genuine warmth. We build pubs that are rooted in their communities, driven by purpose and built to last.

We operate three acclaimed pubs – The George (Fitzrovia), The Cadogan Arms (Chelsea), and The Hound (Chiswick) – each rooted in tradition but full of fresh energy. In 2024, we were named Food‑Led Pub Group of the Year at the R200 Awards, with The Cadogan Arms and The George both featured in the Top 100 Gastropubs list.

We are proud to be included in CODE Hospitality’s Happiest Places to Work for 2025.

Our mission is to deliver the gold standard of public houses – where quality food, drink, and service create exceptional experiences. If that resonates, we’d love to hear from you.

At Ardent Pub Group, the greatest welcome isn’t just something we give to our guests — it’s something we extend to everyone who walks through our doors. Our pubs are built on warmth, character and community, and that only works when the people who make them thrive feel respected, valued and able to be themselves.

We believe that a diverse team makes for a better pub: richer ideas, better problem‑solving, more creativity and a stronger connection to the communities we serve. Inclusion isn’t an initiative for us — it’s part of how we operate every day.
