New Year’s Eve

Thursday 31st December, from 8:30pm

We’re seeing out 2026 Bencotto style, with good food, £7 cocktails and live music to get the party going.

Live singer Sarah-Louise will be bringing the party tunes as we eat, drink and dance our way towards 2027, with Cocktail Hour from 9–10pm, when all cocktails are £7. Whether you’re joining us for dinner, drinks or just the party, simply turn up and join us. Food will be served until 9.30pm.

Here’s something we don’t normally do at Bencotto… bookings!

For New Year’s Eve, we’re opening up a limited number of tables of any size to book from 8.30pm, so whether it’s just the two of you or a bigger group, you can relax knowing your table is sorted for the evening. We’re keeping things relaxed, with our usual menu available alongside some lovely New Year’s Eve specials. A £25 deposit per person secures your table, with the full amount deducted from your bill at the end of the evening.

So if you want the reassurance of knowing you’ve got a table waiting, this is your chance to book Bencotto.

Prefer to keep things spontaneous? No problem. We’ll still have space for walk-ins, whether you’re coming for food, drinks or just the party.

To book, ask a member of staff, call 01394 276745 or email manager@cafebencotto.co.uk.

Tuscan Wine Evening

Tuscan Wine Evening

Tuesday 13th October, 7pm

This event has been hugely popular and is now fully booked. We’ll share the date of the next Wine Evening as soon as it’s confirmed.

Join us for a relaxed evening celebrating the flavours of Tuscany, hosted by Alistair Wilson from Enotria. Alistair has a real knack for bringing wine to life — sharing stories, answering questions and guiding you through each glass in a way that feels easy and enjoyable.

The evening begins with a Tuscan antipasti board to share, accompanied by two white wines served side by side, allowing you to discover how each wine complements the different flavours on the board.

For the main course, you’ll enjoy an individual serving of Peposo all’Imprunetina, paired with two red wines presented together for comparison. Explore the contrast between the fresher, brighter style of Chianti and the richer, more structured Brusco, and see how each influences the character of the dish.

To finish, enjoy a light dessert accompanied by a glass of dessert wine.

It’s a friendly, welcoming evening with good food, great wine and plenty to discover along the way.

Click here to see the full menu, £55 per person.

Booking is essential and a £25 deposit is required to secure your booking.
