Sir, – Perhaps it’s because the cafe is tucked away in the centre of Ropner Park, or that the weather has been encouraging people to shelter in the comfort of their homes, but there seems to be a misconception that we are closed for the winter.
Not so. The cafe is open throughout the winter apart from a few days in the holiday period. As well as our usual selection of drinks, meals and snacks, we are now offering “Specials” of a drink and a scone for £1.75 or a bowl of home made soup and a roll for £2.
There are still some places left for our five-course Christmas lunches which are always popular. For details, see our website at www.forp.org.uk or contact the cafe on 01642- 633767.
In the school holidays we anticipate that children will enjoy a hot dog after a session in the adventure playground while in the new year we will be offering our special meals every Wednesday at a very reasonable price.
BRIAN SCRAFTON Chairman, Friends of Ropner Park, Stockton
