Latest News
Price increase: We have kept the price of our lunches at the same price for the last couple of years and will continue to subsidise them, using local fresh ingredients. Unfortunately, due to the cost of living rises we have taken the difficult decision to increase the price which will take effect from 1st September as follows:
· Members lunch: £8
· Non-members lunch: £10
· Pudding £2.50
The price of special lunches at Christmas and Easter will be advertised nearer each event.
Keith and the kitchen team are always trying to find new meals to you tempt you, if there is something you would like to see on the menu, please do let us know.
New Members to join our activity groups are always welcome - just come in a little before the starting time to speak to the Leader.
