There’s nothing quite like the joy of a freshly cooked meal, shared in great company. At Wade, we take pride in serving delicious, home-cooked food every day, lovingly prepared by our talented Head Chef, Ronnie, and her dedicated team. With a carefully crafted menu that changes each month, our meals are designed with our Wade members in mind—featuring all their favourite dishes!

With a prestigious 5-star food hygiene rating, our kitchen is a source of immense pride. All the meat and vegetables we use are fresh and locally sourced, ensuring that every meal is of the highest quality. Ronnie ensures that every meal is nutritious, delicious, and well-balanced, and we are happy to cater for any dietary requirements our members may have.

Every lunchtime, our members sit down together in our welcoming dining room to enjoy a hearty two-course hot meal. Whether it’s traditional fish and chips, comforting sausages and mash, or a rich, warming casserole, there’s always something tasty to look forward to. Our members particularly love a traditional meal of meat, potatoes, and vegetables, followed by a classic pudding. And let’s not forget the mouthwatering treats served with ice cream or custard, plus the irresistible cakes that Ronnie and her team bake for afternoon tea! We have tea and biscuits in the morning, and in the afternoon, members can enjoy tea with a delicious slice of cake.

Ronnie shares, “I love to see our members enjoying the meals we prepare. It makes me incredibly happy seeing not a lot of food waste!” She also enjoys making special birthday cakes to celebrate our members’ birthdays, adding a personal touch to their special day.

At Wade, we also love to celebrate special occasions with themed meals. From pancakes on Pancake Day to love-heart biscuits on Valentine’s Day, we always add something special to the menu. For St. Patrick’s Day, we’re serving traditional Irish stew with Guinness to mark the occasion!

We invite you to come and experience the warmth, camaraderie, and, of course, the fabulous food at Wade. Whether you join us for a full day of activities or simply pop in for lunch, you’ll find our meals not only satisfying but also incredibly affordable at only £8.25.
