It's never too early to start planning this year's Christmas Party

This festive season, we're raising the bar with our Cocktail Masterclasses by adding a little friendly competition! 

Our festive cocktail masterclasses are designed to bring colleagues together in a relaxed and enjoyable environment.

The perfect set-up for a corporate Christmas party!

Led by our experienced bartenders, your team will learn how to create a selection of seasonal cocktails while enjoying a fun, interactive experience that's ideal for team building and end-of-year celebrations.

When you book your company's Festive Cocktail Masterclass, let your team know they'll be competing for more than just cocktail-making bragging rights.

Dress Code: Festive 🎄⛄

Pull out your best Christmas jumper, festive sparkle, or seasonal outfit and get into the spirit. At the end of the masterclass, your bartender will crown the Best Dressed Guest, who will receive a special Christmas gift from The Bottling Plant. It's the perfect way to add even more fun, laughter, and festive cheer to your corporate Christmas celebration.

We can tailor your event to suit your business, with bespoke food and drinks packages available to complement your masterclass. Whether you're rewarding your team, entertaining clients, or celebrating another successful year, we'll work with you to create an event that reflects your company and exceeds expectations.

Our dedicated team will take care of every detail, allowing you to focus on celebrating with your colleagues and guests.

🏆 WE DID IT AGAIN! 🏆

For the second year in a row, we are incredibly proud to announce that we have been awarded Best Seafood Restaurant in the South West 2025–2026!

This award means more to us than words can say...

Many of you will have seen our recent post about the challenges we're facing. Hospitality is under enormous pressure, and the impact of VAT and rising costs continues to make it harder than ever for independent restaurants like ours to keep our doors open. It's a difficult time for our industry, but moments like this remind us exactly why we keep fighting

This award belongs to our incredible team

To our talented chefs, George & Joe, thank you. Your creativity, passion, dedication, and the outstanding menus you create every single day are the heart of everything we do. This simply would not be possible without you

To our amazing front-of-house team, thank you for delivering exceptional service, warm smiles, and unforgettable experiences to every guest who walks through our doors. Your hard work never goes unnoticed

To our seafood suppliers, a huge thank you for always delivering fresh & high quality products and for supporting local ingredients. We couldn't have done this without you guys

And finally, to every single one of our customers, thank you for your continued support, loyalty, and belief in us. Every visit, every recommendation, and every kind word helps keep independent hospitality alive

A big thank you to the Prestige Awards for recognising us as Best Seafood Restaurant in the South West for 2 consecutive years. We couldn't be more proud

If you've ever enjoyed dining with us, please take a moment to support the petition. We've worked tirelessly to earn awards like this and to maintain the standards we're so proud of. It feels incredibly unfair that, despite all that hard work, so many fantastic hospitality businesses, including ours, are still fighting just to keep their doors open under the weight of ever-increasing costs and taxation

Here's to another year of passion, perseverance, and serving the very best seafood. ❤️🦞🥂

Recently, everyone has been talking about how VAT is affecting hospitality. We’ve shared the facts and figures before, but today we want to talk about something more personal.

We want to tell you how it is affecting us...

Not just as a business. Not just as restaurant owners. But as individuals who have poured our hearts, time, energy, and lives into keeping our doors open.

Posting something like this takes courage. No business owner wants to admit they are struggling. Yet the reality is that we, like so many hospitality businesses across the country, are facing immense pressure every single day.

The cost of doing business continues to rise, while the government refuses to lower the VAT taxes that are placing so many restaurants, cafés, pubs, and hospitality venues at risk.

We are fighting harder than we ever imagined we would have to. We do it because we love what we do. We do it because we love welcoming you through our doors. We do it because our customers mean everything to us.

But today...today we need your help.
We don't want to be the next ones in line that have to close doors...

Recently we have seen amazing hospitality businesses near us closing their doors, this is happening every day and every day that goes past it's another day that we are grateful that it wasn't us, that it wasn't our turn to give up yet.

Please take a moment to sign the petition calling for a reduction in VAT for the hospitality sector.
Every signature matters.
Every signature counts.
Every signature gives businesses like ours a better chance of surviving and continuing to serve the communities we love.

If you’ve ever enjoyed a meal with us, celebrated a special occasion here, or simply want to support local hospitality, please stand with us.

Sign the petition. Share it with a friend. Ask them to sign it too.

Together, we can help protect the businesses, jobs, and communities that make hospitality so special.

Thank you for your support. It means more than you know.
