Nice to know , there are still some , genuine people left , in my country !
23rd Dec
There are plenty, just stay away from the news and social media and get out amongst real people, and you'll be surprised how many decent folk there are about. Unfortunately we live in a world which only wishes to discuss negative events and promote division. Most people are still decent though imo, it just doesn't feel like that once you turn on the news or pick up your phone.

I've heard the foods awful there couldn't pay me to go
23rd Dec
The food is really nice actually. Shame the same can't be said about you... (edited)

Best deal of the year here on Hotukdeals (edited)

Legends. Being alone on Christmas must be tough enough, never mind having to cook a meal knowing it’s just for you. So good on these people, this’ll make Christmas a lot easier for some people

A few years ago a colleague asked me what I’d done for Christmas Day. I said that I was on my own and just made myself a bowl of pasta. She had a big family and had apparently had a stressful time looking after them. I expected pity, and I was surprised by how envious she was of my Christmas alone.

Great, I'll arrive 10 minutes before my partner

Presumably you're joking(?) but please don't encourage scumbags!

Slightly differently, if you would like to help someone really badly off have a nice Christmas dinner, you can donate to the Sally Army via their website, using using your PayPal.

Their Christmas card through the post today told me all about their work and I couldn't pass on by.
QR code on Christmas card, PayPal login. Bish, bash feel good for helping someone.

What evidence do you need to provide that you're homeless ?
23rd Dec
It's not about being homeless. It's for people on their own at Christmas and you don't need to prove anything. You can live in a luxurious house and still be lonely. In the true spirit of Christmas. (edited)

Would be nice if lots of places had singles dinners events at not just Christmas time, but throughout the year. Doesn't necessarily have to be a free meal, but it might be a good way for lonely folks to meet people as well as not be alone on Christmas day. Not to take anything away from this pub, it's a really lovely gesture for a business which relies on profit to stay afloat, especially in this economy. But those folks will still be lonely the other 364 days of the year. Loneliness is awful, and is the foundation for a lot of mental health issues. Wish there were more things in place to help people make friends and find partners. It's especially hard for the older generations.
23rd Dec
That's beautiful. It would be nice to have some kind of register that people/families can sign up to and help a neighbour on their own I would do it.
Merry Christmas everybody
23rd Dec
Id imagine most would rather invite them to their home for Christmas.
23rd Dec
These people know the true meaning of "Wombling free"

Someone should start a service where someone who is lonely and doesn't want to eat Christmas Dinner alone can swap places with someone with family but wants to eat Christmas Dinner alone. (edited)

Lovely pub and was in there the other day and saw this offer. There was collection boxes around the pub.
All credit to them.
23rd Dec
That's a brilliant pun if you made it deliberately.
Agree though. Excellent from the organisation.
23rd Dec
Clearly very nice to provide this , but what happens if thousands turn up now this is posted?
Do they have limitless space? Are they going to have to turn people away ?
23rd Dec
Better to be at capacity and turning some away than to have empty seats while some sit at home alone because they didn't know about it
22nd Dec
How lovely. True spirit of Christmas. X
22nd Dec
God bless those people 🙏
23rd Dec
If this was my local I would definitely go! It’s tough being on your own over the holiday. My plan is to have a roast and put up some wallpaper whilst watching tv on prime to bypass all the festivities.
23rd Dec
I would go as helper.
23rd Dec
They also do a meet up for lonely people on Mondays (or is it Tuesdays ) lunchtimes… how pubs (& society wider) should be
It’s a great pub, wine bar, rooftop restaurant and rooftop bar (edited)
23rd Dec
Very good of this pub to do this. This year I decided to not buy a new phone, as my Poco F3 is failing, but donate the amount I would have spent on a new phone to local pub who will be treating the homeless around the area to a Christmas meal. More satisfaction than any material thing can provide. Hot.
22nd Dec
I applaud kindness 👏 🙌 god bless all those in need and lonely this Christmas 🎄 🙏 ❤️
23rd Dec
This is so brilliant, gives me hope that this country can come back from the depths of despair we see from our leaders
23rd Dec
Our so called leaders and tabloid media do not really represent the country. They are in it for themselves.
23rd Dec
Brilliant gesture, well done to the owners and staff!
23rd Dec
Plus the £78 each way in a taxi
23rd Dec
Send them a message they cover that too...
23rd Dec
Lovely stuff. Gives us all a bit of hope that the spirit of Christmas and generally just caring and being kind is alive and well. Well done!👏🏻❤️
23rd Dec
Thanks OP, added this to my Free Meals on Xmas Day megathread

I have lunch in their a few times a month and drinks a bit more regularly.
They do this each year, their food is normally good to. Lovely pub with a nice roof terrace too!
22nd Dec
So nice.
23rd Dec
Great pub.
23rd Dec
Truly great pub. Posted this about 5 Christmases ago. Follow their Facebook
23rd Dec
Things like this are so heartwarming and yet it is equally heartbreaking that there will be people needing this
23rd Dec
Love it, it's hard times for everyone and it's people like this that give their time and money to provide for others that are alone or struggling that shows the true meaning of Christmas. Merry Christmas everyone. 🎄🌲🤶🎅🎁⛄🙏
23rd Dec
Bravo! Keep Britains pubs going!!
23rd Dec
Absolutely love this. Have all of the heat
23rd Dec
Scrooge McDuck is just angry because you revealed his plan to save a buck!
23rd Dec
Great gesture by the pub but the last thing they prob needed was it posted on here.
24th Dec
Hope the fillet steak is of an acceptable standard and the wine is at least a Lafite or Margaux. Adjacent and safe parking for the Roller will be required or will have to use the Bentley.
24th Dec
It’s lonely at the top

A shame you’re quite far as I might of forced myself out the door
I hope some have a nice meal and feel brighter today
