Hello again...
number eighteen has leaped into the Autumn freshness with some fantastic new tasty delights – both in the café & the brasserie. Our Autumn menus are well underway now, with much great feedback coming from our regular customers, as well as our visiting guests. Many of you have left some great reviews on Tripadvisor.com – Many many thanks!!!
Hot off the press, we’ve had a great review in the Western Mail Autumn Issue too. We are delighted with the review the brasserie received, and it has spurred us on to continue our relentless efforts to serve great, fresh, locally sourced food, in contemporary stylish surroundings. “This isn’t your traditional chintzy country restaurant”. “Great care has been taken to convert the premises into a modern yet inviting space across two floors”. “The emphasis here is on provenance and letting the ingredients speak for themselves”. (Autumn 2010) Fantastic response – Thank you to the Western Mail!
With the evenings beginning to shorten, why not join us @ number eighteen for a cosy cuppa in the afternoon, or a cheeky glass of wine in the evenings. We have inviting sofas on our ground floor, perfect for that little aperitif, and a few nibbles. Any every Thursday we offer ‘live music night’, so the entertainment is thrown in for free!
We are running several promotions over the coming weeks... Currently, every time you visit our café, you’ll be rewarded with a voucher for our brasserie. This offers 15% off your WHOLE bill, if you book your table between 6-7.30pm, Monday-Wednesday. We are running this promotion until 20th October 2010, so pop down to get your hands on one of these sought after vouchers!
In our café, we are operating a reward promotion for all our faithful ‘Facebook’ fans! Go online to Facebook, click on our page, and print yourself a voucher which entitles you to a free regular tea or coffee in our café. Present the voucher at the till, tell us your name, and the brew of your choice! Tell your friends about us, they can become fans, and they too can benefit from this reward.
Keep your eyes peeled for our upcoming promotional activity too... number eighteen invites all families to join them for Family Night. From 22nd October to the 30th (inclusive), we are running a family night special at the brasserie – book your table between 6-7.30pm, downstairs in our restaurant and we’ll give your family 15% off the whole bill. There are a range of Junior 18 dishes available, and for more information you can check out our menu on www.number-eighteen.com

Autumn Menu Launch
So folks, it’s getting to that time of year when the summer buzz is over and we all have to get back into the swing of things…. ‘back to school’… ‘back to work’… but we must not forget that good food is available all year long!!! number eighteen brasserie & café have launched their Autumn 2010 menus over the last week. The café menu maintains the popular choices of sandwiches, paninis, baps etc, but there are a few additions to the menu this year, as well as a comprehensive list of specials available on a daily basis. The brasserie on the other hand has changed most of its menu – our steaks and burgers will remain a constant of our offering, but we’ve branched out this season to extend the taste buds of all our diners. Whilst we are using a lot of our own home grown produce, we are still reliant upon the great fresh, local produce that is delivered daily to our doorstep. Check our www.number-eighteen.com for a better look at the new menus in detail.
After Green Man this year, we were all slightly exhausted – with an average of 250 visitors a day for the month of August, the number eighteen had worked flat-out for the busiest weeks of the year so far. Nonnie, one of our part-timers, who works during her university breaks, won ‘employee of the month’ for August. She was delighted, as were all her colleagues. It was a thoroughly deserved win, for all her effort, unfailing flexibility, and her incredible impact on customer service. Good luck back at university Nonnie, we look forward to having you back at Christmas.
So September has hit, and with the usual ‘back to school’ chaos, comes some reorganisation at number eighteen. We have to say farewell to a number of brilliant team members – Alex, Tom, Henry, Kate, Robyn. But they are finally flying from the nest and heading off to begin their own careers. We wish them every success, and look forward to hearing about these successes when they come back to visit. We also need to bid farewell to dear Alice, who ‘can’t be asked’ on a regular basis, but who’s lovely, and will be terribly missed as she returns to Prague to finish her Masters degree. We have however, recruited some absolute gems to step into the shoes of these leavers. Four new part-time members of staff have joined the number eighteen team, to support the steadfast backbone number eighteen team. Kate, Laura, Sophie, & Fiona are all very welcome to the team – we look forward to you all meeting them.
So folks, busy times here at the café & brasserie – lots of team shake-ups, lots of change on the horizon, but as ever we are committed to providing the high standard to which you, the customers, have now become accustomed. Keep your eyes peeled for information regarding the upcoming promotions at number eighteen. This week it’s ‘coffee and cupcake’ week in the café – maybe you could chance a ‘cocktail & cocktail’ in the brasserie. But there are plenty more events in store…. We have live music lined up for 16th, 30th Sept, & 14th, 28th Oct from local artist Jim Ramsey, who joins us with a 2 hour acoustic set. Pop along to check it out for yourself – even if you don’t fancy a meal, just a few drinks & nibbles.
Anyhow, until next time, keep checking us out on facebook & twitter, and check our website www.number-eighteen.com for a more detailed look at our menus, and a regular update on promotions.
