Oh no you haven’t ….left it too late to book a Christmas party! I have done the hard work for you, finding venues around Tonbridge that still have availability for a Christmas shindig, family gathering, work night out, NCT gathering … who needs an excuse?! It’s Christmas!

Shopping matters.
It is seven weeks until Christmas Day and although we might feel as though autumn has just begun, it won’t be long before our High Streets are adorned with twinkling Christmas lights and festive decorations (let’s face it, the Christmas cards are already out in the shops!).
*** CHRISTMAS COMPETITION *** And now for something completely different … again!
Christmas is eight weeks on Wednesday. Hopefully that isn’t too much of a shock but if you’re struggling with gifts for that tricky relative or friend then this blog might just help you out.
What Eat Around Tonbridge did next …
This blog started out almost as a dare to myself: after years of being employed and becoming a parent, could I do something on my own? Well I did back in April 2016 and little did I know of the exciting journey ahead of me. I’ve met and interviewed some great local foodies, broken the news of places opening in Tonbridge, been nominated for an award thanks to all of you, been interviewed by new cooking app developers on the eating and shopping habits of the average Brit (true fact!), co-founded a successful, local foodie networking club and last and definitely not least, today I’m thrilled that it’s publication day for a cook book that I have helped to bring to reality! Whoop! Whoop!
*** 12 Days of Feastmas *** Day 3 – Nancy’s Tea Rooms
Not many towns can boast a café that was once a public convenience and has had its own slot on a daytime TV show! When I think of the name Nancy I think of the character in ‘Oliver Twist’ – when I left Nancy’s after my first visit, I was definitely in the ‘Please Sir, can I have some more?’ frame of mind. Nancy’s has generously donated afternoon tea for two in January to a lucky winner. To win, simply answer the following question: after whom is the café named? Submit your answers on my Facebook page, via Twitter (@eat_tonbridge) or as a comment below. Thank you to Nancy’s & enter now! Good luck! The Rules in case you were too busy that night….
*** 12 Days of Feastmas *** Day 2 – Havet
Havet arrived in Tonbridge this year and it has taken the High Street by storm…it is always busy and deservedly so: the food and service is excellent and the atmosphere always buzzing. Read my review from earlier in the year here. Havet has kindly offered a voucher for £35 to a lucky winner. If you’d like to use it over the festive period, they are closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day with 6pm being the last booking time on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve. The voucher will be delivered to you by secure post or by hand, depending on where you live. To enter, just let me know what your favourite Christmas song is! Enter on my Facebook page, on Twitter, @eat_tonbridge, or in the comment box below. Good luck and thank you Havet! The Rules in case you missed them…
