With the evenings drawing in fast, thoughts turn to open fires, animal pelts and mead. Well, for some at least, and for those among us, there’s a new spot to spend those cold winter nights.
The historic Black Friar pub in Salford has turned its sizeable beer garden and garden bar area into a ‘medieval winter tavern’ as we head into the festive season. The decor will boast guttering candles, real fires and furs.
It has also developed new Highland Park whisky cocktails to go with the new garden transformation, and a whole new winter drink menu, including warm apple and cinnamon toddies. The garden can be hired out for small or large groups and fits 45 people seated and 55 people standing, aiming for the Christmas party crowd.
