Week Nine at The Shire
What’s going on in Abergavenny this week?
As the dust settles following the food festival, the wheels of hospitality keep turning. Go and support something local this week!
The Crown are launching their warming Autumn menu - which feels appropriate after all the rain we’d had! Dishes include wild boar, tomato, and red wine ragu, baked portobello mushroom stuffed with chestnuts and honey, spiced crème brûlée with homemade shortbread.
Offered from Thursday (26th)
Re-opening at The Vine Tree, Llangattock
