Arundel pub offers complimentary three-course meal to people spending Christmas alone

Independent family brewer, Hall & Woodhouse, is offering a complimentary three-course meal at The Black Rabbit in Arundel.

The ‘on your own table’ initiative promises to host a table for Christmas dinner for those who would otherwise be alone on Christmas Day, ensuring they are able to come together with other people in a similar situation to enjoy the festivities and some community spirit.

The Black Rabbit in Mill Road has a table reserved for six people on Christmas Day.

Ian Gort, general manager at The Black Rabbit, said: “Giving back to the community is an integral and essential part of what makes the Hall & Woodhouse family so special. Christmas is a time of the year where people get together with loved ones to celebrate and reset.

"Unfortunately, for some, that’s more difficult and can cause a lot of grief and loneliness.

"We are honoured to provide that sense of togetherness and support during what can be a difficult time for many. Please do reach out to any of our participating pubs if you or someone you know might be lonely this Christmas.”

Places for Hall & Woodhouse’s ‘On Your Own Table’ initiative are secured on a first come, first serve basis, with waiting lists available in case of cancelation. Guests can request a seat for themselves or be nominated by another party.
