A visit to the Water Rat is always a highlight in itself – but we aim to ‘highlight the highlights’ with a range of great themed events, designed to hold special appeal for you. We have exotically themed nights with authentically flavoured dishes featuring Chinese, Mexican, Greek and Indian cuisine in addition to, from ‘across the pond,’ American burger nights... and nearer home, speciality nights featuring corned beef hash, chicken in the basket and good old pie and chips!
Add to this list, seasonal events to herald Christmas, New Year, Valentine’s Night, Ripon Races etc; and there is always a date to look forward to at the Water Rat. Keep visiting this page to update your social diary!
