Bramwell Pub Company, the managed operator, is set to launch its spring/summer menu next week, with the introduction of new, value for money offers across food and drink and a new “Lighter Dishes” section.

The menu also sees an emphasis on snacking and sharing options, additional focus on the “Big East” range and improved versions of the best-selling dishes, Bramwell said.

The Lighter Dishes section includes dishes with fewer than 500 calories including new Super Feta salad and Hot Thai noodles.

Kate Eastwood, head of sales and marketing at Bramwell Pub Company, said: “The menu has been created in consultation with our customers so we’re delivering the dishes that they want to see on a pub menu. Our research has shown our customers like a good range of sharing and snack options which they can enjoy over a drink or two when they visit our pubs, so we’ve introduced new platters to cater for that occasion as well as complementing our existing range.

“A number of our best-selling dishes have been enhanced including the Fish & Chips which are now made using a new beer-batter recipe, making the batter lighter and crispier, encasing the fish to ensure it tastes great.

“The Hunters Chicken is now basted in BBQ sauce whilst it’s char-grilled, making it succulent and mouth-watering and all of our sandwiches and jacket potatoes will be served with our handmade coleslaw. All burgers will be served in a buttery brioche bun with a new special burger sauce, and we’ve added a new burger to the range, the Ultimate Messy burger - a double beef burger topped with Monterey Jack cheese, bacon, chilli, jalapenos, fried egg and onion rings.

“The Big Eat section, which has been designed for those who like a little more on their plate, now includes pub classics such as Scampi & Chips and after 3pm, comes with a free drink from a selected range.

“It’s also a lot easier for customers to find their favourite dishes as the menu has been designed in clear sections.

“For customers watching their waistlines, they can easily pick out the dishes that are under 500 calories. Or, if customers are looking for our great new deals, which include a classic burger and a drink starting from £4.99; nachos and a bottle of wine for £10 after 5pm everyday and two meals from £6.49, they can be found on the back of the menu.”
