I am pleased to announce the return of the Club’s ever-popular Retro Evening. Join us at the Club as we take Members and guests on a nostalgic journey back to the classic dishes of the golden era of cuisine!

Members and guests are invited to don their most dated finery for this fun and flavourful evening.

As is traditional, we will be putting together a list of classic cocktails and disco drinks which will be available from 6.00pm (details to be confirmed). Members and guests will be invited through to the Dining Room for 6.30pm, where the following retro-themed (yet refined) menu will be served. Please note that this includes a choice of main courses, and, as ever, vegetarian / dietary-specific alternatives are available across each course:

The Club’s normal dress code will be in effect, but we encourage ‘retro interpretation’, so please feel free to go wild with colour combinations and flared trousers! This is always a fun evening for the Club and we greatly look forward to seeing Members pushing the boundaries of taste!

Tickets are priced at £35.00 per person. To reserve places, please email the Club Office on secretary@rnuc.org.uk or append your name to the sign-up sheet in the folder in Reception. We look forward to seeing you (back in the 1960s)!
