Themes:
Loads more guest beers at The Bar & Marble Beer House and maybe a special festival ale as well. Usually these prove to be very popular and have to be kept in production for the rest of the year. Sounds like more money when it's actually more work. Unicorn has something for those chilly nights - hot chilli foods and imported Mexican chile peppers that are not usually available in England. Then there is the kids artwork on a food / drink theme. Invent a soup for Bean Counter, win a prize and get it on the menu. A bit harder is invent a muesli for Unicorn. Recipes from noted NW England chefs at Frosts. Three different imported bottle beers everyday for £1.50 each at Idaho.
