🚨 BREAKING NEWS FROM THE RUNCIBLE SPOON… 🚨

Following numerous reports of suspiciously good cake, we’ve had no choice but to bring in the professionals. 👮‍♀️🍰

Meet The Great Runcible Bake Police…

Currently investigating the mysterious disappearance of the last slice of Victoria Sponge… although strangely, nobody saw a thing. 👀😂

Rest assured, we’re taking this case VERY seriously.

No crumb will be left behind. 🚔🍰

🍂 HELLO SEPTEMBER… HELLO AUTUMN! 🍂

And just like that, it’s 1st September! 🍁

So what does autumn mean at The Runcible Spoon?

🥣 Big bowls of hearty homemade soup
🧀 Warm, freshly baked cheese scones
🥔 Proper loaded jacket potatoes
🥪 Toasties with plenty of melted cheese
🍰 A slice of homemade cake when it’s far too chilly for salad
☕ Hot chocolates, steaming pots of tea & all things cosy

Basically… comfort food season has officially arrived. 😋

We’re quite ready for crisp mornings, crunchy leaves and an excuse to put cheese on absolutely everything. 🤣🍂

What’s the ONE food that tells you autumn has arrived?

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for our French evening — we really hope you thoroughly enjoyed the food, the atmosphere and your little taste of France at The Runcible Spoon. ❤️

Unfortunately, access to our usual favourite wall for taking photos was slightly limited thanks to the building works… so you’ll just have to take our word for it that everything looked and tasted absolutely scrumptious! 😋

Thank you, as always, for supporting our Supper Nights. We love putting these evenings together and seeing so many familiar and new faces around the tables.
