We love seeing Putnam businesses support each other, and today’s collaboration is a sweet one. 🍪

The owner of Cargill Chevrolet is a familiar face at our pub, and they came to us with an idea: a custom Cargill sugar cookie for our guests to enjoy at the end of their meal. Our baker made it happen, and we’re excited to share them with you! 👩🏻‍🍳

Stop in today or tomorrow, from 11:30 AM to 10 PM and enjoy a complimentary Cargill cookie while supplies last.

A big thank-you to everyone at Cargill Chevrolet for supporting us and helping make today a little more fun. When you need vehicle service or are shopping for your next car, we hope you’ll consider keeping it local and visiting our friends at Cargill Chevrolet here in Putnam.
