Whether it’s the whole family finally getting together, the annual work Christmas party, or simply an excuse to gather your favourite people around the table, we’d love to celebrate with you at The Sun Inn, Coate this Christmas. ✨

Our Festive Menu will be served from 14th November until 3rd January, with plenty of proper festive favourites alongside some slightly different choices.

🍽️ 2 courses – £28
🎄 3 courses – £35
💷 Just a £5 deposit per person confirms your booking.

From Turkey Ballotine with all the festive trimmings and Salmon Dauphinoise, to our Ribeye Steak, Nut Roast and indulgent Naughty List Burger — followed, of course, by Christmas pudding, Biscoff sticky toffee sponge and plenty more.

We’ve got a large restaurant, plenty of parking and 10 cosy hotel rooms on site, making The Sun Inn a great place to bring everyone together without worrying about who has to travel home afterwards.

September might feel early… but those Friday and Saturday Christmas party dates disappear quickly! 🎅🥂
