Enjoy haggis and a wee dram in celebration of Robert Burns at Black Country Wetherspoons pubs
The annual celebration of Scotland's most famous poet is to be marked with a week of celebrations at several Black Country pubs.
Three Wetherspoons pubs will be celebrating the life and work of the Scottish national poet Robert Burns with a seven-day celebration, from Monday, January 22 to Sunday, January 28 inclusive.
Customers at The Moon Under Water on Lichfield Street in Wolverhampton, The Royal Tiger on Wednesfield High Street and The Sir Henry Newbolt on Bilston High Street will be able to enjoy some traditional Scottish food and drinks to mark the occasion, including on Burns’ Night itself on Thursday, January 25.
The Moon Under Water pub manager, Dan Davey, said: “The seven-day celebration is a great opportunity for our customers to enjoy some traditional Scottish food and drink and to celebrate for longer than just January 25.”
The pubs will be serving haggis, neeps and tatties, as well as a Caledonian Burger, which is two 3oz beef patties, with haggis and whisky sauce, served with chips and six onion rings.
The haggis meal will cost £7.50 with a choice of soft drink and £8.97 with a choice of an alcoholic drink.
A small Scottish haggis, neeps and tatties meal is also available, at £5.81 with a soft drink and £7.28 with an alcoholic drink.
The Caledonian Burger meal will cost £9.64 with a choice of soft drink and £11.11 with a choice of an alcoholic drink.
Among the drink choices for the Burns’ event meal deals is a selection of Scottish drinks for customers to enjoy.
On offer is Nessie’s Monster Mash (4.1 per cent ABV) from Cairngorm Brewery, a predominantly malty, lightly hopped beer, served especially for the event, as well as Scottish gins, whiskies and beer.
