From 12 July onwards, the menu will also feature comforting lunches of freshly-made grilled cheese sandwiches, with four variations available. Purists can opt for The Classic, with a secret four-cheese blend with onions and chives, while hedonists shouldn’t miss The Truffle, a rich fusion of pecorino and gruyere cheeses with black garlic, onion confit and black truffle. Meatier options include the Pulled Pork Shoulder grilled cheese sandwich, with Sharpham cheddar, pommery mustard, real ale and apple chutney; and The Pastrami melt which includes cheddar, mushrooms, Red Leicester, mustard and horseradish.
