Sadly we currently have no availability this year. 7 nights up until Christmas are fully booked... and we've even taken a booking for 11th January 2014.
Wow.
Had an excellent Saturday night hosting a lovey group of people celebrating a gorgeous girl's 30th. Photos will be uploaded very soon...

We missed you...
All our August places have now gone.
We have two dates in September... but er, they have already gone too!!!!
So you have to be quicker next time.
There may only be one date in October (one weekend is devoted to running/plodding in Chester Marathon, another attending a fabulous wedding).
The Griddle night is likely to be 26th October, so if you want to join in the fun, why not drop us a line now?

10 hours of cooking for you...
This summer I will be barbecuing the main meal for a very long time, in fact for 10 hours.
I promise you it will be meltingly tender... and served with the crunchy, tangy Kohlrabi slaw will be a perfect match made for YOU.
Dates available are:
17th August
31st August
If you are not feeling brave then book the whole table for a fabulous night with your own friends - or take a risk (we promise it will pay off) and come in a pair, in threes, on your own and see who else turns up!
Whatever you do - I know you'll have a fantastic time, I mean how could you not with crisps, chocolate and barbecued pork on the menu.

So long...
but not farewell...
We've been gallivanting around Spain on an epic road trip, eating far too well and thus have had no time to write up menus or plan when we can host another Griddle night... but there will be dates in August...
And by the way, if you or a friend have something to celebrate, celebrate it here... we'll put on a good feast and may even throw in a few extra treats... I mean, why would you not? You can have up to 9 lovely people. as much alcohol as you like, food will only cost you £25 each, we'll devise you a perfect play list, make sure you are happy with the menu... lots of people have loved holding a birthday party here - and we've loved having them!
Evidence of road trip... this is in the Asturias. BRILLIANT.

Too much choice
I think we only have one date in July - Saturday 20th.
But it's a good one; how can it not be with so many ingredients to choose from? You'll love the pork from Ashlyns, the mackerel from Loughton Fisheries is so fresh and clean tasting I am desperate to make this again for myself (hard to get it - working in an office all day) and then - the pavlovas, I know you will scoff down despite a belly load of food.
Come, come, come! griddleproject@gmail.com

Your place could have already gone...
We haven't even publicly invited anyone to dine at our lovely wooden table in May and already we are nearly fully booked.
We have 4 spots free on Saturday 4th May and spaces on Saturday 18th May.
And last night we had a booking for our possibly only free Saturday in June. I really love doing this and so we will try and sort out a mid weeker, or maybe a Friday. Dates will be up as soon as I have finished the menu (deciding exactly what exciting and tasty food to put on the menu is never easy - but always a joy to think about!)
If you are free on 4th May or 18th May, why not try us out? griddleproject@gmail.com
