🎉🍻 TWO YEARS OF KITCH BEING IN CHARGE! 🍻🎉

That's right! Our very own Kitch has officially survived TWO whole years as General Manager of The Water Witch! 🥳

Two years of pulling pints, juggling chaos, keeping the team in line (allegedly 👀) and pretending he knows what's going on at all times. 😂

In all seriousness, we're incredibly lucky to have him at the helm. He puts his heart and soul into this pub, and we couldn't be prouder of everything he's achieved. ❤️

So here's to Kitch, two years down and hopefully many more to come!

Congratulations, boss! 🍻

P.S. We have absolutely no idea what's going on with that hat either. 🎅😂

Some beautiful shots of our lovely little place in Lancaster.

If you fancy getting out if the damp today, come and warm yourselves by our fire 🔥

Lunch menu is just £9.99 and runs between 12-5. But if it's tea you're looking for, then our w**e and dine offer is on tonight. Enjoy any 2 mains and receive a free bottle of w**e. Perfect for a mid week catch up 🥰

🔥 The fire is officially LIT! 🔥

Rain pouring outside, fire crackling inside… autumn pub season has well and truly arrived! 🍂🍁

There's something rather lovely about escaping the miserable weather and settling into a cosy pub with a roaring fire, good food and a drink in hand. 🍷🍺

So leave the rain to do its thing. We've got the warm seats waiting! ❤️🔥

Because good company deserves good food... and a little w**e never hurts! 😉

📍 The Waterwitch, Lancaster

Two mains. One bottle of w**e. Zero excuses not to treat yourselves! ❤️

Seafood lovers, this one’s for you 🦐🐟

Our Seafood Sharing Platter has landed, and just look at it. 😍

Chilli king prawns, fish goujons, roasted mackerel, mini fishcakes and prawn cocktail, served with dipping sauces, warm breads & butter.

Perfect for sharing for £24.50.

Although “sharing” is really more of a suggestion. We’re not here to police your seafood intake. 👀

Catch of the Day 🐟

Pan-seared cod loin, grilled asparagus, hollandaise, caramelised onion & potato cake. £18.99

Fresh, fancy, and very much worth ignoring whatever sensible thing you were going to order instead. 👀

Available while it lasts.
