See You In The Holly Jolly
Our elves have worked their socks off building the brand new Holly Jolly Outdoor Bar, located inside the FireSide marquee. You'll be able to sample our brand new winter cocktail menu, alongside boozy and non-alcoholic hot chocolates imported from Italy. A range of craft beers will also be available, as we proudly partner with Sunderland icons VAUX.
If you'd rather stick to your personal favourites, we stock a full range of drinks including cask, wine and spirits, on our indoor bar in The Engine Room, bringing you the best selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks.
Neapolitan Pizza, Festive Donuts and Delicious Mince Pies
Get fresh out the oven classic and festive-themed pizzas from The Fire Truck, our beautiful airstream parked up inside FireSide. Choose from a classic margarita, pepperoni, pigs and blankets, wild mushroom, mozzarella and the Christmas turkey. Pizzas range from £11 to £12.50.
We also serve up filled festive donuts made on site, as well as classic mince pies. Children's portions are available if you're popping in after the panto.
