Live Life on The Veg

Over the last 12 months, we’ve really seen a spike in interest in a more plant-based diet. So much so, more and more of our pubs are hosting vegetarian and vegan nights, and our teams attending inspiration days with friends from Mildreds. The High Field’s weekly veggie night has proven popular, and blogger Word in … Continued

Pass On Plastic

Abolition of single-use plastic is all the rage and rightly so. At Peach we have already tackled this issue front of house – straws, stirrers, drinks bottles, takeaway coffee cups have all been in our firing line. We don’t give straws and stirrers out unless on request, and if you do want a straw then … Continued

We transformed six lives a week with clean water in 2017

As a group, we focus a lot on helping the community, both here at home, and overseas with The Peach Foundation. This is why for over six years, the only bottled water we have sold in our pubs has been BELU. BELU gives 100% of its profits to WaterAid, with the aim that everyone, everywhere should have access … Continued

Peach joins Straw Wars

Plastic waste makes up between 60 to 80% of total marine debris and scientists estimate that every year at least 1 million seabirds, 100,000 marine mammals and sea turtles die when they entangle themselves in, or ingest plastic pollution. Not because of a straw though surely? Although straws amount to a fraction of ocean plastic, … Continued

Doing our bit for the World’s Biggest Coffee Morning

Last Friday morning was unusually busy for The Almanack and The Richard Onslow. Both pubs were joined by our friends from Union Hand-Roasted, and they opened the doors to bakers and coffee connoisseurs alike, for Macmillan’s World’s Biggest Coffee Morning. Union offered cupping sessions of their varieties, starting with advice on how to smell, followed … Continued

No matter how long the Winter, Spring is sure to follow…

Each season our chefs devise the tastiest of dishes, using only the best ingredients that the current time of year brings. We always serve the good stuff, and in Spring that means the earliest and best English asparagus, Cornish free-range lamb, day-boat Brixham fish, Yorkshire rhubarb and superb farmhouse cheeses. In search of the latest … Continued

We all know how hard a New Year’s Resolution can be…

Christmas has come and gone, everyone’s back to work and no doubt you’re thinking about whether you go dry for Jan, stop eating carbs, or get back to the gym. Well fear not, eating out is still possible, as throughout January, we’ll be offering a super superfood salad using great seasonal produce including Beetroot, Clementines … Continued

A Merry Veggie Christmas

There are not any vegetarians in the Peach Chef team and we really do love our fabulous meat, all of which is sourced from the UK, from the award winning steaks sourced from our friends at Aubrey Allen to our juicy Jimmy Butler Pork Sausages. That doesn’t mean we don’t love a great vegetarian dish, … Continued
