Week Eleven at The Shire

What’s going on in Abergavenny this week?

You might have noticed this email landed in your inbox a day later this week.

This will be the norm moving forward, because it gives me chance to research as much content as possible to include.

Arabella’s Artisan Eatery

A bit further than Abergavenny, I know, but I’ve visited this little café in Brecon a couple of times recently. I loved their food and wholesome all female team.

Josie cooks everything by herself in a small kitchen upstairs, and her Autumn menu has launched this week. My top tip? Get the pancakes. That toasted sandwich doesn’t look bad either…

Kahve

Early days, yes. Kahve recently announced their Christmas menus are now available. For those who love to plan ahead - like myself - this one goes out to you.

The first image below is their Hollybush Menu, for the 5th, 12th, 13th, and 18th of December.

The Mistletoe Menu can be pre-ordered for the 14th and 19th of December.

Myfs Kitchen

If you haven’t been to Myfs unit near the train station yet, you’re missing out.

Her home cooked meals are a better alternative to a take away. The Friday Night Menu offer is only £12 for a main meal, side, and a dessert. You can pre-order or walk-in.

And speaking of Christmas menus - here’s another! I’m tempted by this one myself…

  • 2 courses £45 / 3 courses £55

  • Last orders by December 10th.

  • Collect on Christmas Eve.

  • Contact Myf for any further queries.

Antur Brew Co

I mentioned last week that Antur are doing a great job of pulling food vendors into our area, and they’ve gone and proved it again this week by landing Cardiff Market heavyweights Bao Selecta.

Catch 22

Sunday Roasts are part of the eclectic menu at Catch 22, and they’ve been a real hit recently.

  • Further details on menus are available on their social media pages.

  • Pre-order now for Sunday 13th. Collection and local delivery options available (free delivery in Abergavenny).

  • Pre-order can be made via social media message, email ([email protected]) or phone (01873 859511) and needs to be made by 11th October at the latest.

  • If sold out for that date, their social media pages will be updated.

We will finish this weeks newsletter with some lovely feedback for Catch 22:

A customer visited us twice this week. On the second visit, he explained that the reason why he returned was for the crispy broccoli fritters and quoted that the broccoli, yes broccoli has changed his wife’s life and that they have never been to a chippy twice in one week 😂

- A couple who clearly know their food!
