Celebrate the season with our 2025 Christmas Menu. From traditional ham to handcrafted
desserts and cocktails, our festive menu is designed to impress without the stress. Whether
it’s a team lunch or a family feast, our menu delivers bold flavours and effortless service so

Examples:

What works well

Need Help With Your Image?

If you're not sure how to design an ad that meets our specs, Canva is a great tool to use — it’s user-friendly and has many ready-made layouts. We recommend searching for tutorials on YouTube such as “Canva ad design best practices” or “Designing social media ads in Canva” to get started quickly.


Deadlines

We ask that material is sent to Aly by Monday to be included in that week’s Wednesday newsletter.
