Hire St Gregory's Church

Are you organising an event? Why not consider hiring the magnificent St Gregory's Church?

St Gregory's has a licensed café serving tea, coffee, juice, cakes, beer and wine and is open throughout the week. The historic building can be made to suit any event; from classes, concerts and lectures to film showings and private occasions. Together with its central location, this makes St Gregory's a venue with a real difference.

For details, please contact us.

Our café serves…

Our licenced café is open Tuesday to Saterday and serves only the best local & wholesome food. New on the menu are eggs. We have them both pickled (40p each) and unpickled (£1 half dozen). The eggs come from a local farm with a small flock of chickens that are being fed on a healthy wheat diet (without antibiotics).

Other items on the menu include:

› Fruit cake, (glutin free) sponge cake & irresistable cup cakes
› Locally made sorbets & ice cream
› Various juices & elderflower presse
› Sparkling wine & local ales
