Create an inviting atmosphere and enjoyable experience in your pub. Explore our curated collection of pub lighting, designed to meet the varied needs of your space.
A pub lives or dies on atmosphere, and atmosphere is mostly light. Too bright and it feels like a canteen; too dark and people cannot read the menu. The pubs that feel right are the ones where somebody thought about the lighting as hard as the beer.
We design and make pub lighting in our Herefordshire workshop, as we have since 1982, for independent landlords, pub groups and the designers who fit them out. Everything is made to order, so we can match your interior, produce consistent runs across the bar, snug and dining areas, and build fittings tough enough for the realities of a busy pub, including outdoor pub lights for the frontage and garden.
The range covers pub ceiling lights and pub cluster lights for character over the bar, and pub wall lights for that low, warm glow people settle into. We also restore original pub fittings, so if your building has history in it we can bring it back. Tell us about your pub and we will give you a straight answer on what will work and what it will cost.
Pub atmosphere comes from low, warm, layered light: pendants and clusters over the bar and tables, wall lights around the edges, and nothing harsh overhead. Warm bulbs around 2700K make timber, brass and faces look their best. Fritz Fryer makes each of these to order for pub interiors.
Yes. Our fittings are made from solid hand-spun brass and proper glass, not lightweight decorative parts, and they are built for daily commercial use. Everything is wired and tested in our workshop to current standards before it leaves, so it stands up to the realities of a working pub.
Yes. Because everything is made to order, we can match finishes to your interior, replicate existing fittings, or design around your brand. For pub groups we produce consistent runs so every site has the same look, and we can mix new pieces with restored originals.
Yes. We make outdoor-rated wall lights and fittings for pub frontages, signage, terraces and gardens, built to cope with British weather. Outdoor fittings need proper IP ratings for their position, and we will advise on the right rating for each spot.
Yes. Restoration is a core part of our workshop. We restore and rewire original pub chandeliers, lanterns and wall lights to current standards while keeping their character, and we can make new fittings to match where originals are missing or damaged.
Yes. Our fittings work with dimmable LED bulbs and standard dimming systems, so the room can run brighter at lunch and drop low and warm in the evening. We can advise on bulb and dimmer pairings for each fitting.
Single fittings are priced comparably with premium retail brands and take a few weeks, made to order. For full pub schemes we quote per project with volume pricing and an agreed schedule tied to your fit-out. Tell us the brief and we will give you real numbers, not vague ones.
Yes. Tell us the layout, ceiling heights, the areas you need to cover and the feel you want, and we will suggest a practical scheme, including where to spend and where a simpler fitting will do the job. We work with landlords and designers directly.
