Thursday 4th December 2025 - Christmas Luncheon at The Bathwick Boatman Riverside Restaurant

12.00 for 12.30pm

Following successful years we have once again booked The Bathwick Boatman for a Christmas lunch, and were hoping that we again have a good response.

Please see below the menu, a two-course luncheon with tea and coffee for £33 or a three course option with a dessert for £44. As she has always come up with an excellent fare, I hope you will feel happy in forwarding your advance payment to Gardens, Bath & Beyond to book your place.

Please note that we have included a small amount in the price to cover gratuities for their service.

Please send your choice of a starter and a main course, and for those who wish, a dessert. Anyone wishing to go for the steak please make sure you add how you would like it cooked and note the £6.50 surcharge. There is also a choice of butter.

Looking forward to seeing most of you on the 4th December.

Yours sincerely,

Bunny Harvey
