On the Menu This Christmas


The heart of the festive fayre menu is the roast. At the Fletchers Arms, Jolly Sailor, Puss in Boots and Spread Eagle, that means Our Famous Festive Carvery: a choice of hand-carved, overnight slow-roasted joints with a help-yourself spread of triple cooked roasties, sprouts mash, maple roasted parsnips, braised red cabbage with apple and cinnamon, caraway buttered carrots, and broccoli and cauliflower gratin. At The Station House it is the Almond Festive Roast, a slow-roasted turkey roulade with sage and buttered onion stuffing, wrapped in maple glazed streaky bacon and served with all the festive trimmings. Add a pig in blanket or two to either, and there is a plant-based ‘turkey’ breast with vegan gravy for a meat-free Christmas.

Away from the roast, there is plenty to tempt you at every pub. Tuck into The Bells & Whistles Burger topped with a pig in blanket and festive slaw, Teriyaki Salmon Skewers, an Apple Cider & Ginger Braised Lamb Shank, or the Roasted Pumpkin & Ricotta Ravioli for something meat-free. Then leave room for dessert, with Rocky Road Chocolate Cheesecake, Mulled Apple & Blackberry Crumble with honeycomb ice cream, Traditional Christmas Pudding with brandy sauce, or a Lemon & Ginger Treacle Tart. The Station House also offers a three-course option, with starters such as the Bloody Mary Prawn Cocktail and the Hot Honey Roasted Beetroot, Goat’s Cheese & Toasted Pine Nut Salad.

Our pubs are the perfect choice for anyone looking for Christmas pub bookings near me, festive food menus near Manchester, or Stockport Christmas party venues. We know how busy the season gets, and with many of our pubs filling up well in advance, it pays to be first in line.
