New summer planting has been brought in to give a new lease of life to the outdoor area, making The Earl Spencer the perfect venue to enjoy the sunshine with friends and family.
The new menus cater for all tastes and appetite sizes and there is a good choice from pub classics using local produce, including burgers, steaks and pies, to a tipsy brunch, a children’s menu and light bite dishes.
