Cocktail training means one thing at The Prickly Pear… 🍸✨

Fresh, seasonal cocktails, plenty of taste-testing, and more than a few laughs along the way. If these photos are anything to go by, we had an absolute hoot.

John’s put a huge amount of work into perfecting this new cocktail line-up, and they’re now pouring at the bar for you all to enjoy.

Keep an eye out this week as we’ll be sharing a closer look at some of our favourites. 👀🍹

Last night we hit another mile stone with our first “Into The Light” talk organised by the friends of St. Mary’s.

It was a pleasure to host rewilding ranger, Daniel Hill, as he takes us through rewilding a former dairy farm near Bruton.

It was great to see our space in another new form. If you would be interesting in holding a talk, or organising any event in The Garden Room, drop us a DM :)
