Fathers Day at Kite

It’s time to celebrate that extra special man in your life. Speaking as a father I (Tom) would personally very much like to be taken out for what is widely regarded as one of the best Sunday roasts in Hertfordshire. If you share that wish, then book in for Sunday Roasts with us this Fathers Day!

And if you think they deserve an extra treat (which of course they do), you can preorder our Cote de Boeuf Sharing Special:

Cote de Boeuf for two
28-day dry-aged Cote De Boeuf cooked over charcoal. With rosemary and garlic roast potatoes, glazed carrots, market greens, cauliflower cheese, Yorkshire pudding and red wine gravy. £88.
