Weekend diner menu 22/23 February ’19

I just looked back at this week last year in the diary to try and predict what a dry, mild weekend and half term holiday combo might mean for business and there on the page for March 1st was written “The beast from the East” followed by an almost blank 3 days of bookings and a note that the fish delivery could not get through on 2 consecutive days. What a difference a year makes. Anyway……I’m none the wiser re: predictions for the weekend and coming week but we do have tables available if you want to book on 01453 832808

Mid week menu -5 to 7 February 2019

What a week! The threat of snow, the arrival of snow and the aftermath of snow and sub zero temperatures meant customers were very thin on the ground. Just to add to the pain the heating has taken on a mind of it’s own. It switches off when it feels like it and the clock tells a different time to that set. A new electronic programmer is on order. Not to be left out the dishwasher decided not to heat the wash water. This meant a call out the man who can and of course new parts were required for that too. On the plus side…England won the rugby.
