✨ Wedding Open Evening ✨

Where the details whisper before the room even speaks.

Step into an evening shaped for couples who notice the small things, the quiet glow of a table set with intention, the way a space can hold its breath before a celebration begins, the promise in a perfectly poured glass.

Wander through our rooms as they shift from venue to possibility. Taste the dishes crafted for the moments people remember long after the photographs fade. Sip something chilled, linger where the light falls softly, and let the atmosphere do what it does best: reveal what your day could become.

📅 Thursday 2nd July 2026
⏰ 5pm – 8pm
🥂 Complimentary drink on arrival
🍴 Food samples
💍 No reservation required

Happy Father's Day to all the dads, stepdads, grandads, father figures, and BBQ supervisors out there! 🍻

Today, we celebrate the men who:

🔧 Can fix absolutely anything...
📺 Know the exact volume the TV should be on.
🚗 Refuse to ask for directions, even when the sat nav is begging.
💤 Can fall asleep in any chair within 30 seconds.

Whether you're with family, enjoying a well-earned pint, or pretending you don't want any attention while secretly loving every minute of it, we hope you have a fantastic Father's Day.

Father’s Day Lunch

This Father’s Day, bring the man who taught you the important things, like how to stay calm, stay kind, and stay suspicious of anyone who says “trust me.”

Feed him well. Let him hold court. Pretend you’re not timing how long it takes before he rearranges the table settings.

Book your table, unleash the main character energy.

Dad says he doesn't want a fuss.

Dad says he doesn't want presents.

Dad is lying. 😏

🍽️ Father’s Day Lunch: Where Dad Pretends He’s Paying

On Sunday 21st, we’re serving up the roast and the dad jokes.

Bring the man who taught you how to parallel park, grill badly, and claim he “doesn’t need directions.”

Let him order the biggest plate, tell the same story twice, and still call it “quality time.”

We’ll handle the food, no last-minute petrol station chocolates required here. Visit our website to view the menu.

Book now before Dad decides he can ‘just cook at home.’

If you hear singing coming from the kitchen this June… don’t worry, service is still running perfectly.

That’s just our Head Chef Dom doing what he does best, cooking seriously impressive food while absolutely belting it out like he’s auditioning for The Voice or headlining Glastonbury on the Pyramid Stage.

He’s young and fully committed to the vocals. Fortunately, he applies the same energy to the food, which is a good thing, because the real star of the show is what lands on your plate.

From working in the French Alps to some of London’s best restaurants, Dom’s culinary journey has brought him back to his native Darwen, and we’re incredibly lucky to have him in our kitchen. He is known for his technical ability and creativity, and his genuine passion for delivering exceptional dining experiences results in dishes that are both memorable and beautifully executed. The singing is free. The food is the real masterpiece.

This month’s menu highlights include:

🥗 Dom’s fresh take on a Greek Salad
🍗 Chicken & Leek Terrine with Parmesan Curd
🍨 Vanilla Panna Cotta, Gooseberry Compôte & Elderflower Granita

Last night at Astley Bank, trust issues were created, friendships were questioned, and innocent people were accused with remarkable confidence. 👀

In other words... Round Table: A Murder Mystery was a huge success.

The faithful weren't always faithful, the traitors weren't always subtle, and some of the theories being thrown around would have made excellent detective novels.

A huge thank you to the fantastic team at Wish Upon A Star Productions & Events for delivering such an immersive and brilliantly organised evening. From the first accusation to the final reveal, they kept everyone entertained, suspicious, and completely hooked.

And, of course, thank you to all of our guests who threw themselves into the game. Your commitment to accusing your friends, partners, and complete strangers was truly inspiring. By 10pm, nobody trusted anybody. You helped create an unforgettable atmosphere, and your acting skills were suspiciously good. We’ll be keeping an eye on you.

We loved every unhinged minute. Thank you all. See you at the next one.
