Christmas Specials in our Restaurant – from November 25th

Due to popular demand, this year our restaurant is offering a more traditional taste of Christmas. Starting from Monday 25th November, we're getting into the festive spirit with a selection of Christmas-themed specials that are sure to warm your heart and fill your tummy. Here's what deliciousness we've got on your plate this Christmas:

Traditional Prawn Cocktail with Bread & Butter

A classic starter that never goes out of style, our Traditional Prawn Cocktail is the perfect way to begin your meal. Juicy, succulent prawns are delicately dressed in a rich, tangy Marie Rose sauce and served atop crisp, fresh lettuce with a tomato and cucumber garnish. Accompanied by slices of soft, buttery bread, this timeless favourite is both delicious and indulgent. Whether you're treating yourself or sharing with loved ones, our prawn cocktail is a delicious nod to tradition with every bite! At £8.49, this classic favourite is a great way to kick off your festive meal.

Traditional Christmas Roast

Our main Christmas dish is a feast in itself. This Traditional Christmas Roast includes tender turkey breast, a pig in a blanket, stuffing, crispy roast potatoes, a selection of vegetables, a Yorkshire pudding, and, of course, plenty of rich, savoury gravy. At £14.49, it’s a delicious and hearty way to enjoy the flavours of Christmas. This dish really brings the festive spirit to your plate, and we’re proud to feature locally-sourced, high-quality ingredients in every bite.

If you have certain dietary requirements but would like to enjoy our Christmas roast, we have the following options available:

Gluten-free: Our traditional Christmas roast can be gluten free - you may not be able to enjoy all that we have to offer, but you can ask our team to leave the Yorkshire, stuffing and gravy from your plate, and tuck into the roast turkey, pig in blanket, crispy roast potatoes, and vegetables.

Diabetics: The only carbs are in the potatoes and Yorkshire puddings which you can choose to leave off your plate based on your sugar levels.

Vegan: We will be offering a vegan version of our Christmas lunch with vegan cottage pies.
