Sundays are special

We want a great Sunday lunch to be at the heart of your community pub and a perfect way for family and friends to come together after a busy week. We have worked with our local suppliers to produce a menu with some of the finest quality joints of meats available in the region.

Every Sunday morning, we slowly roast select joints in small quantities to ensure the best taste and freshness. It is then hand carved to order.

Alternatively you can pre-order your choice of roast to be served whole at your table for you and your guests to carve yourselves and enjoy.
