I'm surprised there hasn't already been a thread for this...
The Bear Inn on Greengate St is set to reopen as 'The Bear Grill' on Tuesday 23rd June. I was sent a Word doc with the menu etc so here's all the info:
Welcome to The Bear Grill
We’re the little cub of The Lewis Partnership, but we certainly don’t want to be a grizzly bunch, more a happy & jolly fun loving team here to look after you. The perfect place to enjoy a coffee, cocktail or just some good burgers.
All our beef burgers are 100% beef - aged for a minimum of 28 days. We’re proud to source the majority of our ingredients from Staffordshire.
Our burgers are served on a fresh toasted floured bap with little gem lettuce, beef tomato, red onion, mayo, French fries & chunky coleslaw, unless stated differently. Upgrade to curly fries for 50p.
If you prefer your burger with a few less calories we are happy to substitute the toasted floured bap & French fries with a green salad.
