Common questions
Can you cater for dietary needs and allergies?
Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free menus with 7 days’ notice, and shellfish is always avoidable. Every menu is built on wild seaweed, so traces can be present in any dish. Tell us about severe allergies when you book, and we ask again on the day.
Can we hold it somewhere other than the Bowhouse?
Yes. It runs indoors at the Bowhouse in St Monans, or at a venue of your choosing. It is the weatherproof experience, so no shore and no tide to plan around.
Can I take part without alcohol?
Yes. A full non-alcoholic flight is available with 7 days’ notice, so drivers and non-drinkers get the same evening.
How many people can come?
Two to twelve guests per session, which keeps it intimate and interactive.
When does it run?
Year-round, in the evenings. Dates are coming soon, so register your interest to hear first.
