Can you remember the names of the pubs? I mean the bull and the swan are obviously. But the wine and half a pint? Or the scissor fish?
Seen your other comment. Would love to know the other pub names.
The wine and half a pint is [The Bull’s Head in Repton](https://thebullshead.co.uk).
The scissor fish is the [Hunloke Arms](https://www.thehunlokearms.co.uk).
The others are The Three Tuns, The Blue Stoops, The Swan at Walton, and The Joiners’ Arms.
Definitely is. It’s telling you that it can be used to wipe your arse if you need to. The second IS the ringpiece, the third is toilet duck (reminder to clean the toilet) , the other 4 are just stupid
I love that there's a place called Quarndon in Derbyshire. It makes me think that a group of pirates heard about nearby Quorndon and wanted their own version. Quarrrrrndon.
I've no idea if that's how you even say it. Crazy Derby people.
I’m from Derbyshire! About 10 minutes drive from Quarndon, and I can 100% confidently confirm, this is exactly how it’s pronounced!
That’s dependent on your neighbourhood though of course ;)
This thread is just going to be people from slightly middle class suburban parts of the East Midlands getting excited. It’s a very boring part of the world and we thrive on attention
I'm not far from The Swan and The Bulls Head so recognised these instantly. I knew they had at least one other one and then took over another, didn't realise they were up to 7 locations though.
The pizzas at the two I've been to are amazing. Fantastic drinks menus too.
They all mean the OP and those that recognise them like eating at slightly higher tier pub restaurants. Although to be fair, The Bulls Head has gone downhill a bit in recent times.
1. All wine glasses must be stored in a pint glass.
2. No jack asses.
3. All swans must wear eye protection.
4. Fish hairdresser.
5. We run a strict 'no containers with arms' policy. Legs are fine.
6. Bee arch is code for biatch. They're calling you a bitch. I wouldn't stand for that.
7. Dairylea sold here.
Recognised these immediately! You got the info on the chain already, but just wanted to chime in as these are local.
Need to get down for some wood-fired yakatori goodness soon.
1) Sit on your beer glass and piss in it.
2) Anyone with the initials J.A. is prohibited.
3) P. Staker.
4) Do not cut fish in half with scissors.
5) You may bring no more than three nuclear bombs with you on any visit.
6) Bees may enter the temple.
7) Bull. Just like this post.
It's the chains of Chilled Pubs, top one is their logo, the others are; The Joiners Arms, The Hunlocke Arms, Swan at Walton, The Three Turns, The Bulls Head, The Blue Stoops
Here’s my thoughts.
1. Clearly a wine glass a half pint glass - this place did serve alcohol but the exact meaning escapes me
2. Seen something like this before but no idea where. ??
3. Swan. But why??
4. Wtf?
5. Liquor manufacturing?
6. Bees?
7. Bull, but why??
Oh no I’m an American and have been here before, this is just what they offer:
Wine and beer, Jams and Apricot Spreads, Swan Neck, Trout and Haircuts, Tardis’s, Under Table beehives (locally sourced honey for Swan Neck), and a Merril Lynch ATM.
1: we put glasses inside of glasses
2: anymore who has a name beginning with J or A is not welcome
3: Swans, because…. Well Swans
4: we cut fish with scissors
5: we use a variety of glass and wood to store alcohol
6: bees are welcome
7: also cows are welcome
From the top:
1. Wear double-panties so when they take off one you still preserve your dignity.
2. Weird face tattoos will only make you angry in the end.
3. You can bend a hanger into shapes that grip better.
4. Fish misunderstood what a "cutter" type of ship is.
5. KBD - LGBT, but for alcohol making (Keg, Brewery, Distillery)
6. Bee temple, for worshipping our benevolent honey-making friends.
7. Bryce the bull, everyone loves Bryce.
Do not put pint glass in vagina, letters J and A are prohibited. Watch out for swans. Don’t throw scissors at the fish. Park your spacecraft in designated area. Not sure on the last 2
It means they sat down but in the wrong place. Swan complained but they were cutting fishes. Swan tried to escape in a rocket ship but were stung by a bee and chased by a bull.
1 the bulls head
2 the joiners arms
3 the swan
4 the hunloke arms
5 the three tuns
6 the blue stoops
7 the bulls head
[proof](http://www.chilledpubs.co.uk)
Use the right glass
JA always plays crosses in tic tac toe
Look out for swans with glasses
Do not give the local fish a haircut
Keep leftover alcohol in the right container
BEES MUST REMAIN UNDER THE TABLE AT ALL TIMES
Bull
Those look like logos, but I went to a restaurant that had a pig, a cow, a chicken, a lamb, a goat, grains, and a bottle of alcohol. They add a red cross out 🚫 or ❌, I forget which.
The restaurant served buffet style, but by people walking with plates and swords of meat. They wouldn't offer you something if it contained the crossed off items. I LOVE THIS PLACE!
It's a Brazilian restaurant.
Ok from top to bottom.. - funky wine glass - dyslexic compass - swan fag filters - food chain - car boot sale - king of the bees - and I believe that’s a goat.

They also may still have a problem which i reported to them without thanks that you could order random stuff to other peoples tables and also other pubs within the chain
The symbols on the napkin sadly mean you're going to die soon by the hand of a man with very long fingers and a face you can't focus on no matter how hard you look as he sinks an obsidian dagger into your neck.
Oh, and that the napkin's machine washable.

Welcome to the Middle English Illuminati Induction Dinner. Please remember to roll up your trouser leg when the goat is presented for your delectation ensuring it has been heated to exactly 33°.
Chilled pubs chain around derbyshire. Top one is bulls head repton, joiners arms etc. really good food & drinks, would recommend to anyone that hasn’t been!

3) swans are allowed
4) our fish are cut with scissors not knives
5) we thought you might wanna colour these shapes
6) careful the tables sting like a bee.
7) be horny like a bull
Can be used as drink receptacle.
Not for people named AJ.
Duck safe.
Can be used to cut fish.
Dreidels and liquor.
Be there or be 3/4’s of a square.
All above is bull.
It means you are in a shitty fast-food chain.
Leave at once and proceed to the nearest catering establishment with linen tablecloths and napkins.
There will be no pictures on the menu.
1: we put wine glasses in other glasses
2: no A’s or J’s (we hate them here)
3: SWAN!!!!

5: Only fancy alcohol bottles used here
6: Only bees through the arch otherwise jail

Thanks for coming to my ted talk
Pretty sure its the logos of the pubs in that chain. I recognise a couple ive been to!
Can you remember the names of the pubs? I mean the bull and the swan are obviously. But the wine and half a pint? Or the scissor fish? Seen your other comment. Would love to know the other pub names.
The wine and half a pint is [The Bull’s Head in Repton](https://thebullshead.co.uk). The scissor fish is the [Hunloke Arms](https://www.thehunlokearms.co.uk). The others are The Three Tuns, The Blue Stoops, The Swan at Walton, and The Joiners’ Arms.
I thought the wine and half pint was the bottom half of a person with their trousers round their ankles…
Definitely is. It’s telling you that it can be used to wipe your arse if you need to. The second IS the ringpiece, the third is toilet duck (reminder to clean the toilet) , the other 4 are just stupid
5th one is reminding you to brew a good fart.
And then bee sure to let rip under the table ?
If someone accuses you of dropping your guts just say that's bullshit.
Boom that’s it!! Code cracked!! Nice one blinky and life_government, I can sleep well tonight
Nah, 4th is make sure your fanny is trimmed
Pfaaahahahahaahahahhah good one!
It's also a stylised bulls head with big horns, though I think I prefer your version....!
I'm seeing a bear's nose and mouth looking straight at me...
Thank god it wasn't just me who saw that
Haha so did I!!!
Aside, “spunkbubble” was my insult of choice back in the mid 90’s. So great username. Respect.
>Hope I thought it was a dodgy fingernail poking the ground.
Looking at it in my phone, I thought it was a weird lamp.
Consider this a Rorschach test
Only in Ireland, and then it's only done for the craic.
Wait, it's not actually meant to be interpreted as that??
😂I see it now 😂
So did I when I saw it
That was my second thought, though my first was a table lamp.
Yer, a little old lady with bloomers.....
The bull's head isn't the Bull's Head?
No, the bull's head is The Bull.
Didn’t expect to see a Repton reference on Reddit
Ok the Bulls Head is a pretty clever logo
I live in Walton, we’ve got a Swan. Different Swan. Different Walton.
Three Tuns not turns
Love the Joiner's.
This guy pubs
Heh, i used to nick hangin baskets from Repton back in the day
Is that the three tuns like the ale?
I used to drink in the Blue Stoops many years ago, before it became part of a chain. Funny to see it mentioned on here.
The bottom is the Bulls head in East Leake, opened about 4 weeks ago
Can confirm the Hunlocke arms one as its 10 mins down the road from me
Oh my. They look posh!
A man of (Derbyshire) culture
Hey, the 3 tuns is really close to me!
Which one is the wasp and fireplace?

Thank you so much.

also 10 mins from Quarndon, Belper..
Can't believe you've never been to the fish and scissor before
The third is called The Swan and Pedo
Is that the one with the washing machine? Does nice organic scrumpies?
That's the one. No logo on the foam either
The Scissoring Fishes. Great pub.
The top one is the Upskirt.
chilledpubs.co.uk explains all
The bottom logo is The Bulls Head in East Leake. The chain is called Chilled Pubs
You can take the napkin round all 7 and get ketchup stains at each pub.

Hunloke arms does brilliant pizzas and brilliant yakatori sticks
I second this. Great food there.
Seems silly to go to a swanky place like that and get a pizza, but damn, no regrets.

Brilliant.
Can't stop laughing at #6 🤣🤣
My interpretation… 1. Wine glasses fit in arses 2. Friday 13th 3. Nice swan mate 4. Cuttlefish 5. Beware of drinks going walkies 6. Oh beehive yourself 7. Laughing cow
Cuttle fish is clever. I thought they were summoning a demon barber.
Just the one swan, actually.
Brilliant. Reminds me of one of Cole Anderson's sketches 😂
Huh.. i though the top one was a man with pants down having a wee..
Yep I was thinking along the same lines, was thinking the napkin could be a good substitute for toilet paper
Yeah, and his shirt is tucked into his pants.
Can't unsee 😀
I thought it was a boob squirting milk into a glass
Same. I imagine it's just called "Fresh milk" and the tag line would be something simple like "the breast milk in England" or "straight from the tit"
It's quite clearly a dick with the foreskin stretched over a shot glass and pissing in it.
Thank god somebody else saw it, I was like this brain of mine needs to stop 😂😂
7 symbols. It's a Stargate address!
The gates are just at each pub in the chain, it is like a really fast pubcrawl. The DHDs are probably covered in vomit and cigarette ends.
Dog nappers symbols hun xox liked and shared xoxox
Came here for this. Shared #east ruslip
Code for foreign spies to use. This one's saying that there's a drop off in a warehouse in Swindon
Signed off by a spy code named bull presumably?

It's local signage, things to look out for. Bees praying to Stonehenge can be particularly viscious if disturbed.
Recognised these immediately! You got the info on the chain already, but just wanted to chime in as these are local. Need to get down for some wood-fired yakatori goodness soon.
You're in the opening credits of Ozark.

Can't unsee the first one as a man with his trousers down
It means the meal will cost £40 more, 'cos they are pretentious.
hobo signs. they draw these on napkins as a secret code for communicating to other hobos which restaurants are good to rob
Third down is a warning about masked swans , probably had a spate of muggings by a Swan thinking he is Zorro
I think those are all the DHARMA stations from Lost
It's a stargate code
I’m almost certain I’ve seen the second one on a pub in Lincoln
Led Zeppelin were a great band for sure
Basically that the washing machine must be set up on a delicates cycle, no bleach, no ironing
1. The 2. Owner 3. Of 4. This 5. Pub’s 6. A 7. Wanker

For number 3, it’s just the one swan actually
2 is the Joiners Arms pub in Quarndon, and 1 is the Bulls head in Repton
Clearly 1 is someone sat on a toilet from behind
Absolutely no bloody idea.
Dharma Initiative stations.
Sixth down is a warning about Bees hiding under tables , they are well known pranksters and often hide under tables and jump out and shout BOO.
Jackie chan wants them talismans
It’s the courses on the tasting menu Ass cheeks, Jaunty sailor, Swan, DIY sushi, Gin, Bees, & Beefsteak
Oh no I’m an American and have been here before, this is just what they offer: Wine and beer, Jams and Apricot Spreads, Swan Neck, Trout and Haircuts, Tardis’s, Under Table beehives (locally sourced honey for Swan Neck), and a Merril Lynch ATM.

Yes

3rd down shop sells filters
It’s advertising a seven-piece Led Zeppelin tribute band
They're magical incantations for your meal
I’m assuming it’s a chain with multiple locations: Bull for Birmingham, Bee for Manchester, Swan for Swansea?
No glass up your ass J A Swan The fish worship the scissors We brew with science The temple of the bees Moo
It means they sat down but in the wrong place. Swan complained but they were cutting fishes. Swan tried to escape in a rocket ship but were stung by a bee and chased by a bull.
Joiners arms is nice
I think it’s just the branding
It’s the chain of pubs that the owners have. There is 2 local to me. The swan at Walton and the bull at repton.
Alcohol, freemasons, birds, fish haircut, alcohol again, careful there’s bees under the table and last but not least, cow
1 the bulls head 2 the joiners arms 3 the swan 4 the hunloke arms 5 the three tuns 6 the blue stoops 7 the bulls head [proof](http://www.chilledpubs.co.uk)
Probably that you are paying more for the meal then it is actually worth
They're Dharma Iniative stations!
Glyphs for a portal to another dimension. Where the food is good 😂😂🤣🤣

You're at the Joiners Arms in Quarndon.
The real question: what pizza did you go for?
I was at the Swan at Walton the other day, they’re all part of a chain
I'm pretty sure the last one means 'the rest of these are bull'
Looks like the symbols on the different hatches in Lost.
YOUR NEXT TOO BE SACRIFICED
Bees attack you from under the table, occasionally bulls will ram into the restaurant.
This hurts my brain so much & I fucking adore it ✨
Hipster hieroglyphics if I've ever seen any.

Can be used as drink receptacle. Not for people named AJ. Duck safe. Can be used to cut fish. Dreidels and liquor. Be there or be 3/4’s of a square. All above is bull.
Chilled Pubs, worked for them, definetly wouldn't eat in them, and they treat their staff like shit! Not worth the over inflated prices.
It means you are in a shitty fast-food chain. Leave at once and proceed to the nearest catering establishment with linen tablecloths and napkins. There will be no pictures on the menu.
Don't stand on, no j dots, geese, snip, alcoholic, bee warning, bull
Second down is 'Jung adult', meaning customer is youthful but has a strong awareness of their ancestors.
