January blues: how to shake them off

1. Eat well…

Eating well is known for its mood-booster abilities. Especially when combining healthy AND tasty ingredients.

Check out our daily specials for our ‘Raw, Poached & Grilled’ dishes that guarantee 100% taste bud satisfaction.

Poached cod, lemon beurre blanc, carrot, tomato, parsnip and butternut squash puree. 

2. … and never skip lunch

We hear you, January equals tight budgets. That’s why our chefs invest (see what we did here) all their creativity into designing six daily lunch specials at £6 each.

You read it. £6.

Butternut squash, spinach and goat’s cheese wellington, broccoli.  

3. Gather your mates

Surrounding yourself with your favourite people is an instant endorphin catalyst. Head to the pub and raise a toast to the amazing year to come.

Surely there’s someone in your crew that celebrates their birthday in January – if so, we’re giving you a £100 bar tab to get your party started!

4. Do good

Not sure what to do with that tenth pair of socks you received over Christmas? Bring it to the pub until the 10th of January and we’ll swap it for a house G&T on us.

All gifts will be donated to Shelter. Win-win!

Update 11/01/2019: this offer has now expired.

5. Learn a new skill

Gin is a complex and delicate spirit.

Take things sloe this month to try and experiment different combinations of gin, mixers and garnishes with our special ginuary menu and put your expertise to use.

Assess your new knowledge with our blind tasting test: ask one member of the herd, at any Hippo bar, to pour you a G&T and if you guess it right… it’s on us.

And you can call yourself an awarded ginspector.

So, go ahead, let us know your favourite tactic and shake off those January blues!
