Quiz night at the Duke, Sunday 8th November 7.30

Now that the evenings are dark so early and the weather lends itself to an evening in the pub we have decided to give you a great excuse to spend more time with us here at The Duke.

This Sunday 8th November at 7.30 we’ll hold our first quiz night. Our quizmaster Tom has put together a great evening of brain teasers and head scratchers to keep you entertained. There’ll be prizes, both liquid and cash, to reward the brainiest, or luckiest, of you.

We’d love for you to join us and hope to see you on Sunday.

Rugby, rugby, RUGBY!

Well we’re in the thick of it now and all set for a busy day on Saturday. We’re currently fully booked in the dining room until 6.30pm so if you’re not lucky enough to have tickets for Saturday’s game then why not book for a relaxing dinner in our dining room or book a table in the bar where you can watch what is sure to be a great game.

We have space available, limited though it may be, for the next few weekend games…book now while you can!

Rugby World Cup starts today, have you booked your table?

Well the rugby world cup is finally upon us and our chef has created a great menu for it.

We have limited availability for the next few rugby days so make sure you book if you’d like to dine with us either before or after the game.

Our kitchen stays open until 10.30 so you’ll have time for a post match dinner if you hussle back from Twickenham.

Closed for lunch on Wednesday

We will be closed between 11am and 4pm on Wednesday the 9th Sept as our beautiful, newly redecorated, dining room is the setting for a wedding style fashion shoot.

 

We’ll be back open at 5pm as usual.

 

We hope we haven’t inconvenienced anyone and apologise if we have.

New look dining room and lunch menu

Our dining room is now finished and looks fantastic, even if we do say so ourselves! Come in for lunch and take a look for yourself, our new £6.50 lunch menu is a great excuse to get out of the office!

The Perfect Burger

Here at the Duke we like to think that our food is on the more refined end of the spectrum. A lot of thought goes into our dishes, right from the first idea to the plating of the dish.

That bring us to our brand new burger. We have put just as much care and love into our newest addition to the menu but let’s just say that the resulting dish is not exactly dainty…

It’s big, it’s messy and we think it’s perfect. Come on down and try a bite (or 20) we would love to know what you think!

We are closed until 5pm on Monday 17th August

In the continued pursuit of perfection we shall be closed on Monday 17th August until 5pm in order to increase our staff’s knowledge and make aesthetic changes to our lovely pub.

 

We look forward to welcoming you back in once we re-open the doors at 5pm.

 

Have a speedy Monday.

 

 

Limited opening hours on Tuesday 11th August

On Tuesday the 11th of August we will be closing during lunch until 3pm, and during dinner between 5-7pm for a private function.

You’re more than welcome to come in for drinks between 3pm & 5pm, and after 7pm for our full dinner menu.

 

Our favourite kind of day…

There’s 2 things great about today:

1. It’s Saturday! Arguably the best day of the week - you’re not tired from working all day and you don’t have to worry about getting up early tomorrow for work either. (What’s not to love?)
2. RUGBY!!!! We love Rugby here. Bath vs. Saracens - who are you supporting?

So whether you live down the road, in town for a bit of shopping or popping off to the match, we’ve got you covered with a fantastic lunch menu and a really grand assortment of drinks. (It’s quite warm out: you should totally come try one of our delicious summer long drinks - my favourite is definitely the Passionfruit Wallbanger)

Post theatre dining

Don’t forget that our kitchen stays open until 10.30 Mon-Sat so if you don’t have time to eat before the show you can come and see us after for a delicious dinner. Our two or three course Pre Fixe menu runs from 5.30-7pm and if you’re in a rush you can always come back to us after the show for desserts and maybe even a cocktail!
