Festive 5oz Burger
The Christmas special that comes back every winter: the 5oz fresh beef burger with caramelised onions, sautéed mushrooms, Swiss cheese and peppercorn mayo on a toasted kaiser bun. Richer and more savoury than the everyday 5oz, with the peppercorn mayo the best part. Seasonal only, so look for it from late November.
