Father's Day and Big Bottles

Discount this for bias, but we feel The Stoops is possibly the perfect place to spend Father's Day.

As usual on a Sunday we will have a convivial magnum of wine open. Watch this space for the reveal on the bottle in question - as well as special foodstuffs for the day. But Sundays will always feature roasted meats and fishes.

Or, ask for The Blue Book, our marvellous hand-written compendium of vinous rarities and choose something to properly mark the day. Or just order a bottle of the house red, a delicious Nero d’Avola from Borgo Selene in Sicily.  There is also that most superior of Fathers who might prefer a frothing, hand-pulled pint of Allsopp’s ale! Admittedly a rarer species in W8 then in our ancestral heartland of Burton-upon-Trent!

For the soberer amongst us, and my fellow-traveller Charlie McVeigh is one of you, we have a wide range of excellent NA beers and gins, as well as the truly delicious Botivo Spritz.
