Oxfordshire Pub The White House Closes After Internet Problems

The White House pub had trouble. It’s on Grove Road in Bladon. The Wi-Fi went down on Tuesday, and the card machines stopped working. The tills were also affected, and even the phones weren’t working. The pub couldn’t open that night.

Nickie Rogan spoke about the problem. The internet issues stopped them from welcoming customers. She offered sincere apologies, and the team hoped things improved. Wednesday brought the same problem though.

The pub stayed closed again, and they also canceled the quiz night. They couldn’t operate without tills, as the phones and card machines failed. They tried temporary internet access, but nothing helped them, though.

The pub had to shut down completely. They must fix the internet first now, as it was hard to manage the business. They had no phones, tills, or cards, and the team looked for other options. None of them worked out.

The staff wanted to avoid upsetting people. Closing seemed like the best choice, and they will post updates soon. They cannot access booking messages now.

The White House is a historic pub, and it has been around since the 1500s. People looked for new managers last summer. Winston Churchill once drank there, and he is buried nearby the West Oxfordshire village.

Greene King sold it back in 2019. Locals rallied to save the pub, and four hundred fifty people bought shares. The pub reopened in 2020. Reporters contacted The White House, seeking comment on internet issues.
