Why Join Us?
Pancake Day — also known as Shrove Tuesday — falls on Tuesday 17th February 2026, traditionally marking the last day before Lent begins and a chance to use up ingredients like eggs, milk, and sugar. In the UK, it’s long been celebrated by making pancakes and taking part in fun community activities.
Our fire‑cooking twist brings that tradition outdoors, offering a unique experience you won’t find anywhere else.
