We can’t wait to help you celebrate the most wonderful time of year, this December. Our Festive Menu is on the website, and bookings are now open.
The Festive menu is available from Wednesday 29th November until Saturday 30th December. The kitchen will close as usual on Mondays and Tuesdays and the kitchen is closed 25th & 26th, but the bar remains open.

Live Music in The Bar
Calling all musicians! On Sunday 26th November we will be hosting our first Open Mic Night, hosted by the fabulous Granadians! Pop down and enjoy the music from some great local artists, or if you’re feeling confident, get up and play a tune or two yourself.
In December we are also trying to round up some live music in the bar area on Friday nights. Andy Lenthal will be singing from 9pm in the bar on Friday 15th December and we are working on someone TBC for Friday 22nd December!
If you’re enjoying food with us on any of these days, swing around in to the bar for a few after dinner drinks and enjoy the music and festivities!

New Year’s Eve
We’ll be serving our most fabulous tasting menu of the year, from 7pm.
