๐ A quick update for our guests ๐
Due to the extreme temperatures, we're serving a plated roast from the kitchen rather than our usual Carvery service.
You'll still be able to enjoy all your favourite roast dishes, freshly prepared and served straight to your table by our team.
The good news? Our full Carvery will be back on Sunday as normal!
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to welcoming you. ๐ฝ๏ธโค๏ธ
