As Queens Head

regulars will know,

we do like to travel

the world with our

special themed

menus. This

month we cross

both the Channel

and Atlantic to

bring you some

great flavours from

around the globe.

We kick off pro-

ceedings on

Friday, Novem-

ber 21 and Saturday, Novem-

ber 22 with a return to our

popular two-day Vive La

France event with a delicious

French twist. Last years coq

au vin was a big hit but youll

have to come and see if it

makes a return to the two- and

three-course menus.

Once again, our restaurant will

adopt a bistro feel, and therewill be around the world ac-

tivities for our younger diners.

See our phone number over-

leaf to make a reservation.

On the following Thursday, we

join our American cousins in

giving thanks on the highlight

of the US holidays. Our spe-

cial Thanksgiving Supper

will feature turkey and all the

trimmings, homemade corn-

bread and pumpkin pie.

Things take a more homely

turn on November 30 when

we invite you to join us for

mince pies, mulled wine and

Christmas cookies while we

decorate our lovely inn at our

Deck the Halls event. And

because it is Advent Sunday,

any children dining with us on

that day will receive an Advent

calendar. On De-

cember 4 a t

5.30pm, we join our

good neighbours

from Chalke Valley

Stores for the excit-

ing Hub n Pub

community event to

mark the lighting of

the Broad Chalke

Christmas tree (see

overleaf for details).

Our festive party

menu is now avail-

able, so if you are

planning a family get-together, a

works Christmas do or a sea-

sonal meeting of old friends, why

not hold it in the cosy surround-

ings of The Queens Head?

Look out too for our Christmas

Daymenu - yes, we will be open

for lunch so you can enjoy the

day without the cooking and

washing up!

Other new events include our

Quiz Nights, the launch of our

Bridge Club and the screen-

ing of key BT Sports football

and rugby matches. Ask at the

bar for further details.
