Christmas Menu 2009


Lunch and evening bookings taken for the 1st to 21st December 2009

£22.50 per person



Welcome to the Old Spot Christmas Menu

Dear Sir / Madam,

Please find below our 2009 Christmas menu for your consideration. A booking form for the main menu is available for printing here. We were really pleased with last years menu, we had some amazing feed back, so this year we have done a little critiquing but mostly it's the same, including the price!

We are still sourcing our ingredients as locally as possible and a fair amount of bartering for produce has already taken place.

Bookings are being taken, lunch and dinner for between 4-35 people up until the 22nd December, though please be mindful that Friday and Saturday nights fill up really quickly. Already bookings are coming in thick and fast so to avoid disappointment please book early.

Looking at the current financial situatuion this country is going through, we have decided on introducing an Early Bird Christmas menu, which is available at £16.75. This is availble mon-thurs between 12-6pm. A booking form for the Early Bird menu is available here.

Both our menus need a pre order and a non-refundable deposit of £10 per person to confirm your booking. I also must stress that we would not be able to offer both menus to the same party - its either one or the other.

As always special dietry requirements are happily catered for so please don't hesitate to get in touch.

Both Belinda and I look forward to hearing from you soon.


Stephen Herbert
