New Year's Eve
As the year draws to a close, we’d love you to join us for New Year’s Eve. Expect great food, warming winter drinks and familiar faces as we gather to toast the year gone by and welcome the one ahead. Settle in, stay a little longer, and see in the New Year with us.
Christmas Events
A season full of festive traditions.
From getting creative at our wreath-making workshops to wrapping up warm for our annual brass band carols, there’s plenty to look forward to this Christmas. Gather with friends, family and fellow locals as we celebrate the season with a calendar full of festive events.
Christmas Day
Swap the rush of the kitchen for a slower Christmas. After all, Christmas is about being together. Gather family and friends around the table, enjoy a leisurely festive feast, and leave the cooking, serving and washing up to us.
We’ll take care of every detail, leaving you free to relax, raise a glass and enjoy the simple joy of spending time with those who matter most.
Give the Gift of the Pub
Give the gift of something to look forward to.
Whether it’s a perfectly poured Espresso Martini by the fire, a leisurely lunch with friends, or an evening spent lingering over great food and good company, a Young’s gift voucher is an invitation to make more memorable moments.
After all, the best Christmas gifts aren’t things – they’re experiences shared together.
