Saffron Walden

Lunch Club

Group Leader: Peter Cowper

The u3a Luncheon Club is an informal group that meets monthly, normally on a Wednesday or Thursday, at different pubs and restaurants around the district for a social lunch and chat trying out different menus. Peter emails members each month with details of the next lunch. New members are most welcome but if you are interested in coming along with us please email Peter Cowper - see above.

Dining at The Pheasant, Great Chishill

Lunch club continues to grow from strength to strength meeting once a month, normally on a Wednesday or Thursday, towards the end of the month. Membership has grown to a steady 20-25 attendees and we have visited pubs in Dunmow, Helions Bumpstead, Great Chishill and Great Sampford to name a few recently. We aim to cover a range of tastes from Italian to Greek to Thai as well as traditional pub food.

We only had one catastrophe lately when the pub we were going to went bust between booking and arriving 2 weeks later. 20 people ended up in a cold wet car park looking at a boarded up pub but fortunately we were able to find a pub down the road that could accommodate us at short notice! Come and join our very sociable group, just pay for food and drink on the day direct to the pub.
