Waitrose would make sense.

McG you seem very careful not to have offered any opinion on the contents of that menu. Presume they'd be able to produce a vegan option.

Isn't there a time limit for supermarket parking - like 3 hours max? If we are holding all the bags for everyone, will everyone be back on time?

These pubs do really posh food! Where's the fish/burger/veggie burger and chips? :-)
You are doing sterling work McGoo!

en.parkopedia.co.uk suggests it's a paying car park where you can get a refund if you shop at Waitrose.

I need to do a short run tomorrow, I could pop down and check it out...

I did ask about veganisisisisms and (before I got the above) she said they'd be able to cater. I suspect it'd be fish pie without the fish

Thanks McGoo. I was envisaging having to gather my own twigs and leaves en route.
