We’re happy to be offering food in the Rise & Vine bar for the first time since Covid hit. We always used to offer a short selection of nibbles to complement our selection of wines by the glass, but we’ve now extended that selection to offer not only antipasti (olives, stuffed peppers etc) but also a selection of fine cheeses from the Bath Soft Cheese Company and cold meats from Grasmere Farm in Lincolnshire.
We’re also kick-starting the new menu with our first wine tasting since lockdown, appropriately featuring wines selected to complement the 5 cheeses of our cheeseboard. So cheese and wine lovers, click here to book your tickets for 7pm on Wednesday 6 October.
