Burns Night Supper: Saturday 21 January (SOLD OUT)

Booking is now open for our traditional Burns Night celebrations on Saturday 21 January.

The bar will be open from 6 pm. The event itself will begin at 6.30 pm when the Piper will start playing to welcome guests. After this the Burns’ Supper will be served, starting with Cock-a-Leekie soup*, followed by Haggis*, Neeps and Tatties, all liberally washed down with a selection of malt whiskies.

(*Vegetarian alternative: leek and potato soup and vegetarian haggis – please select when booking.)

After the dessert, the Supper will conclude with the usual toasts and further playing from the Piper. After that (around 9.15 pm), the room will be cleared for some Scottish dancing led once again by callers Niall and Rosemary Mitchell. Dress code: wear something Scottish, or come as you are.
