Great to see North Walsham buzzing and the sun shone too

👍 Fantastic afternoon in North Walsham today.

👉 Great atmosphere to finally commemorate VE Day, albeit delayed due to the pandemic.

👍 Privilege to thank the crowd for coming and the organisers for putting on such an event, followed by a moving blessing which gave us an opportunity to reflect on the enormous sacrifice and courage so many made.

🍻Very pleased to finally pop into the Hop In for a swift one and meet Jayne and her brilliant team!

Can’t wait to see you all again soon.

‘Ruby’ The Venue Bus

We found our bus, now called ‘Ruby’, languishing in a warehouse unable to be used. She had been used in Europe by McDonalds for many years as a children’s restaurant. Ruby had been bought by Pierre Rieu, who amongst many interests collects military and rare vehicles. Ruby had been stored in Pierre’s family warehouse for many years. At 14ft 6in tall she wouldn’t go under any of the European bridges, so there she remained gathering dust with no real use in the corner of his warehouse, very much forgotten and awaiting a loving renovation.

We got to know of her existence and travelled to Maastricht, Holland to see her. We decided there and then to buy her and we then began the journey to repatriate Ruby back to England. Move forward 18 months and after many hours of hard work we have ultimately restored Ruby to her former glory. As McDonalds had already removed an enormous amount of her original character and interior, we decided that we would fit a fully functional bar that most pubs and restaurants would be jealous of (supplied by Molson Coors) and replace all the missing original features. As items for Routemaster Buses are becoming scarcer and rarer, we have travelled far and wide finding seats and original fittings for her original, authentic London Bus look and style.

Ruby, The Venue Bus Bar and Bus Team are able to offer a fully functioning mobile bar service. Whilst she is at your event there is an upper deck with seating for up to 32 people. Also available for hire, we can provide outside bistro seating and to go alongside Ruby we have a K6 Phone Box, Royal Mail Post Box and a fully uniformed Guardsman in a Buckingham Palace Sentry Box.

We can cater for your birthday, wedding, corporate event, christening, social gathering, concert or festival to name but a few, please contact us to discuss your event and requirements. We will even consider your funeral!
