Parker's Tavern

Ring in the New Year at University Arms with an evening of elegance with our Gala party. Dance the evening away and toast to new beginnings with Giulia and The Lizards Trio in our ballroom, singing everything from Pop, Rock to Soul, Motown and Jazz. Doors open at 11pm. A full prepayment of £65 per person is required.

We welcome Norfolk-based wine expert and drinks writer Bert Blaize to host a wine tasting 'Try January' in our library on Thursday 16th January, 6pm. We invite you to begin the new year trying something new and discover your new favourite wine with lesser known grapes, countries and regions. Whether you're new to wine or a seasoned enthusiast, Bert Blaize will guide you through these unique wines, paired with a menu curated by chef Lee Clarke, encouraging you to try new styles, varietals, and pairings you might not have considered before. Ticket includes four wines and four pairings.

Room for more? Continue the festive feasting with a leisurely 3-course Boxing Day Brunch at Parker’s Tavern. Gather with loved ones and take your pick from a selection of dishes, from baked duck egg shakshuka, Bloody Mary salad, dry-aged roast beef & bone gravy, Suffolk ham with honey, clove & orange glaze, to finish with croissant bread & butter pudding or a rhubarb crumble & custard choux. The choice is yours. £65 per person. Complimentary glass of English sparkling wine per person. Children up to 12 year’s old will receive our children’s menu, priced per item.
