Christmas at The Duck on the Pond

The most wonderful time of the year is almost upon us, and our festive table is waiting.

Join us this Christmas for cosy gatherings, good food, beautiful surroundings and a little bit of festive magic.

Our Festive Menu will be served from 2nd–24th December, with three delicious courses for £42 or two courses for £34.

And for a little early Christmas cheer…
Book your Christmas party before 30th September and we’ll welcome you with a complimentary half bottle of house wine or Prosecco per person.

We’re also swapping traditional crackers for something that keeps on giving — a little packet of seeds to plant and enjoy in spring. 🌱

Gather your favourite people, raise a glass and let us take care of the rest.

Christmas at The Duck on the Pond — best enjoyed together.

It’s honestly too good to share… although, in a rare act of generosity, we did leave a tiny bit for Jamie. Watch till the end.

A very special delivery…

A little work of art from Annabel Latham | Outspoken Chocolatier & Pastry Chef , created especially to accompany our 5 Course Taster Menu.

Beautiful to look at, even better to eat — and quite possibly too pretty to cut into… although we highly recommend you do!

Our 5 Course Taster Menu is an evening of carefully crafted dishes, with this little masterpiece as part of the experience.

Book your table and come taste it for yourself.
