LUNCH
GROUP
The aim of this Group is to provide an opportunity for members to meet
and socialise in an informal, relaxed and friendly atmosphere, to get to know
each other – and to have a good lunch. The Group will try out different
restaurants and cuisines, based on members’ suggestions.
Number of Members – ca 15. There are no fixed rules on membership and attendance tends to
fluctuate, but there is always a good turnout.
Meeting Dates: Usually, the first Monday of each month, though this may vary.

or 07799413110 The Group started its 2024 programme with a visit to The Maybush, which
is situated in a beautiful spot by the river at Newbridge. The venue had been
threatened with flooding during recent heavy downpours but, fortunately, the
water had subsided in time for the visit. It is hoped to return during more
clement weather, to see the place at its best.
This year’s Christmas lunch was held on Monday 4th
December, at The Turnpike in Yarnton. Twenty-two members attended, the food was
delicious and plentiful, and we all had a lovely time.
Beverley is always on the look-out for interesting venues for meetings. The
place chosen for our get-together on 2nd October certainly came within that
category. The Old Flight House, Weston on the Green, is described as “an
antiques, vintage and interior centre”. Behind a deceptively simple entrance
there is room after room where unit owners display their wares. We found the
café light and comfortable, the staff helpful and friendly, and the food
delicious.
The Old Flight House –
quite a treasure
