THREE pubs will be celebrating the life and poetry of the Scottish poet Robert Burns.
The Wetherspoon pubs will host Burn's Week which will run from Saturday, January 20 to Saturday, January 27, with Burn's Night on Thursday, January 25.
Pubs will be serving two special meals; Scottish haggis, neeps and tatties, as well as Highland Burger (six oz burger, haggis, whisky sauce, chips and six beer-battered onion rings).
Customers at The Commercial Hotel in Church Street, Accrington, The Postal Order in Darwen Street, Blackburn and The Old Chapel in Railway Road, Darwen, will also be able to enjoy a guest ale
This is Robert Burns Brown Ale, from Scotland’s oldest working brewery, Belhaven Brewery, which has been brewing in Dunbar since 1719.
The Commercial Hotel manager, John Rogers, said: “Burns’ Week is always great fun and our customers enjoy the fact that we celebrate for a week rather than just one day.”
