🍂 NEW MENU INCOMING! 🍂

Our brand-new menu launches next Tuesday, and we couldn’t resist giving you a little sneak peek at one of the new additions…

🧀 Mac & Cheese Garlic Bread Boule 🧄

What’s better than Mac & Cheese with garlic bread?

Mac & Cheese served INSIDE garlic bread, of course! 🤤

Creamy, cheesy Mac & Cheese loaded into a toasted garlic bread boule and served with a fresh side salad. It’s indulgent, a little bit different, and exactly the sort of dish we love putting on the menu at The Sun!

And this is just one of the fantastic new dishes joining us next week…

📅 New menu launches Tuesday 15th September
📍 The Sun Inn, Coate

Who’s ordering this one first? 👀🧀🧄

🍂 SUNDAY AT THE SUN 🍂

We don’t believe a great Sunday roast is about one standout ingredient. It’s about getting every single element right.

🥩 It starts with the quality of the meat — carefully selected, properly prepared and cooked with the attention it deserves.

🥔 Our garlic & thyme roast potatoes — golden, crisp and fluffy in the middle.

🥕 Generous helpings of seasonal vegetables, confit carrots and stuffing, because a Sunday plate should never feel shy.

🍖 Then there’s the gravy — rich, full of flavour and poured generously. No little drizzle around the edge of the plate here!

🌿 Our homemade sauces are made in our own kitchen to complement your roast — from proper horseradish cream to apple sauce and red berry jelly.

And finally, the crowning glory…

👑 A proper Yorkshire pudding. Big, golden, crisp around the edges and ready to catch every last bit of that gravy.

We truly believe that when each individual part of a roast is given this much care, they come together to create something pretty special.

Tomorrow is the start of our new Sunday at The Sun, and we cannot wait to start serving them. ❤️

Tables are still available for tomorrow. Drop us a message on here or give us a call to get yours booked.

🍂 Good food. Generous plates. Sundays spent together.
