Being appreciated

Martin Myles has come up with yet another innovation certain to please his customers at The Hideout.

It's a Customer Appreciation Card on which food purchases can be recorded. The idea is that anyone who buys three starters, main courses, or deserts in one calendar month will be entitled to a fourth free of charge.

If you think about it, that's the equivalent of a 25 percent discount on food for regular customers.

There's also a new menu upcoming for bar food, especially geared for groups such as company outings. Seating for a group of up to 40 people is possible.
