SPECIAL OFFER!!
In order to clarify the position regarding our version of commercial hari-kari i.e. the two courses for £10 offer – it has been so successful that we have decided that it just has to STOP!
But wait … things are not as dread as it might appear! We are going to make the £10 menu a permanent feature in its present format i.e. two courses for £10 at lunchtime and before 7:30 every evening.
The nature of this menu is that it is prepared on a daily basis and it is not easy for us to provide advance copies of what might be on offer.
The range will always be a minimum of five first courses and five main courses and there will always be vegetarian options, red and white meat and fish. For evening parties we try to have the menu ready by around 2:00 pm. We are very used to coping with parties of up to 30 or so without a pre-order.
SUNDAY LUNCH
Finally, after much soul searching and in the face of rocketing wage demands from our in-house entertainers/musicians, we have reluctantly decided to raise the price of Sunday lunch to £12 main course only, £14 for two courses and £16 for three.

EASTER SUNDAY LUNCH
Continuing the theme of Sunday lunch, we are pleased to announce a great fun and rewarding series of Easter competitions. We are holding an Easter bonnet/hat competition for both adults and children.
Prizes are as follows...
Adults:
First prize: Bottle of Vintage Champagne
Second prize: Bottle of Prossecco
Third prize: Bottle of Aresti Sauvignon Blanc
Children’s prizes will be Easter Eggs of varying sizes. There will also be an egg hunt around the building (invisible).
MORE MUSIC
Our burgeoning numbers of customers, particularly for Sunday lunch, have meant that we need to use the Cae Glas Room most weekends.
So as to even up the experience we now have two resident guitarists; Mumtaz and Martin Everson-Davies are primed and ready to soothe away any angst that you might feel at not being in ‘the main body of the church’.
Whilst on the subject of musicians, should you wish to hire any of our performers for a special event, either at The Walls or elsewhere they can normally be contacted through us.

ART EXHIBITION
SARA CUNNINGHAM
Running until 5th April
Sara completed a fine art degree in Cardiff and followed this up by ten years as an art teacher in Taunton.
Her exhibition is a varied cross section of her work dating from 1985 up to the present day. She is exhibiting works in charcoal, lino prints, collage and computer generated images. Prices are from a shatteringly reasonable £20.00.
THAI DYED
Opening night - Friday 21st May
Close on the heels of Sara’s exhibition will be an exhibition of original works from a group of Thai artists. The standard and variety of this work is breathtaking and they work very well in contemporary settings.
A riotous night of sense-enlivening visual and culinary art is brought to you courtesy of Shropshire’s answer to the Sacchi brothers, namely Jim Findlay and your host at The Walls, Geoff Hughes.
Jim will be on hand to guide you through our opening night of a six week exhibition of five highly-gifted Thai artists and a collection of individual pieces by other eastern artists. These are not “pot boiler, starving artist” standard pieces but truly special pictures by highly acclaimed and gifted artists.
Viewing starts at 6:30 pm and will be accompanied by Thai nibbles and drinks. All pieces of art are offered for sale as per details in the catalogue. Please telephone for more details.
At 8:30 an authentic Thai dinner will be served – this must be booked for in advance. The dinner is £25 per person.

SMOKING
This is surely the most contentious issue I have to deal with in the course of running The Walls! In advance of any legislation I am going to implement a new smoking policy for the benefit of all our dinners and our staff.
From the 1st of April smoking will only be allowed in the seating area of the Wine Bar and at tables in the Private Dining Room area of the Fitzallan wing. Private parties in the Cae Glas Room can make their own decision about whether or not to allow smoking.
I’m sure that there will be several wheezy howls of anguish from the dwindling band of desperate, weak willed, slow suicidal maniacs but I’m sure they’ll get used to this heightened level of persecution fairly quickly.
PERFECTLY FRANK
Friday 21st May
Due to an amazing and very touching response to their last appearance, we are thrilled to announce the return of this most classy of tribute acts.
An evening with Perfectly Frank is, to be perfectly frank, the most glorious celebration of the music of old smoothie Frank Sinatra.
If you missed them last time ha!ha! Don’t get caught out again – please book early. If you’d like to dress up gangster style, the best dressed table will receive a champagne prize.
Competition to be judged by our longest serving patron/inmate Mrs Barbara Smith who is herself a fanatical Frank Sinatra fan.
