The Prince of Wales in East Barnet, a Heartwood Inn, is gearing up for its very first Christmas since its reopening earlier this year, celebrating with a packed programme of festive events designed to bring the local community together.
Kicking things off on today, Thursday 11th December (7-9.30pm), The Prince of Wales will welcome the Peroni team as part of the 12 Pubs of Christmas trail, bringing live carols, festive giveaways, and a truck full of cheer. Designated drivers dining at the pub can enjoy a complimentary Peroni 0.0%, raising a toast to responsible drinking this Christmas.
On Friday 12th December (4-8pm) is the pub’s Christmas Market & Best Dressed Dog Competition. The car park will transform into a winter wonderland, with a market showcasing up to ten local stallholders selling handmade gifts, artisan trinkets and festive favourites. Families can enjoy a visit from Father Christmas himself as well as mulled wine, seasonal treats and a prize-winning doggie catwalk, with raffle tickets for anyone wearing a Christmas jumper.
Music lovers can return for a heart-warming evening of Community Carol Singing on Friday 19th December (7-9pm). Led by the priest at the nearby St Mary’s Church, guests can gather by the fire for classic carols, steaming mulled wine and a complimentary mince pie with every mulled wine purchased at the pub.
And the festive fun doesn’t stop there, The Prince of Wales continues to host its ever-popular Monday Quiz Night throughout the season. Every Monday at 7:30pm, teams can test their trivia for just £3 per person, with a £50 voucher up for grabs and a rolling jackpot that keeps growing until someone claims it.
Along with seasonal, sustainable menus and its expertly curated drinks list, Sunday roasts with bottomless trimmings and Happy Hour running from 5-7pm Sunday-Friday, with two-for-one seasonal tipples, The Prince of Wales makes for the perfect winter outing.
General Manager at The Prince of Wales, Rory McMonagle, said: “This is our very first Christmas here in East Barnet, and we really wanted to make it special. These events are all about celebrating the wonderful community we serve. Whether you’re browsing the market, joining us for carols, or simply enjoying a drink with us, we’re so excited to welcome everyone in for our favourite time of the year.”
With community at the heart of every event, The Prince of Wales is offering East Barnet a full calendar of festive celebrations and is keen for locals to get involved in the festivities.
