While some kitchens are waving the white flag to the heat, ours is still standing strong! ☀️🔥

It's Midweek Roast Day at The Poet Laureate, and yes, the kitchen is OPEN.

Fancy a traditional roast? We've got you covered. Fancy something a little lighter in this weather? Our midweek roast is also available as a salad because let's be honest, it's far too hot to be wrestling with a mountain of gravy if you don't want to!

The beer is cold, the kitchen is on, and there's plenty of shade and good company waiting for you.

Come and cool off with us at The Poet.

🍺 Cold beer
🍽️ Kitchen open
🥗 Roast salad available
😊 No heatwave-induced closures here!

See you soon.
