What's on the menu at The Pickerel Inn?

Want to keep it classic this year? Look no further. Book your table at The Pickerel Inn and sink your teeth into one of our traditional pub classics. Take our award-winning Steak & Ale Pie, for instance... or maybe you'd prefer our creamy Vintage Cheddar Mac & Cheese?

It's the perfect way to make the most of those extra few days off. Just make sure you leave enough room for dessert – it wouldn't be Easter without a little bit of chocolate, after all. Specifically our Chocolate Caramel Torte...

Good food for every guest

Easter is about bringing people together, which is why we've made sure there's something to satisfy every appetite at Pickerel Inn. While our traditional roasts are the stars of the show this time of year, you'll find plenty of pub favourites to choose from – from hearty, comforting pies to juicy burgers and flavour-packed vegetarian dishes that don't compromise on taste. And remember what we always say – save a bit of room for what comes next.

What do people eat over Easter?

Easter Sunday lunch is all about the flavours that bring people together. Traditionally, lamb is a popular choice, but many people choose beef, turkey, or gammon as their Easter centrepiece. The trimmings could be even more important—fluffy Yorkshires, golden, crispy roast potatoes, and seasonal veg all drenched in gravy.

Of course, the sweet side of Easter is just as important. You'll find hot cross buns making an appearance at breakfast tables across the country, best enjoyed warm with butter melting into each bite. From rich fruit cakes and traditional puddings to mountains of chocolate goodies, Easter is definitely the time to embrace your sweet tooth.
