Sun Shines on the GREAT DINING BUS

The first in a regular monthly programme of the Milford on Sea Great Dining Bus Tours was sold out and took place on Saturday lunchtime on 8th June 2013.

As the twelve diners arrived at The Marine for a welcome drink and canapés, the sun shone and everyone enjoyed the breathtaking panoramic views from The Marine Roof Terrace.

After boarding the Great Dining Bus, the guests then visited Verveine, The Raft and La Perle, where they enjoyed a different course in each restaurant, which showcased each of the individual restaurants' style and menus.

Most diners did not know each other on arrival, but by the end of the afternoon they had enjoyed the informal and friendly company of their fellow diners. The last diners left the final lunch venue just before 5pm, so it seems everyone had a good time!

One of the diners, Mark Clayson said: “We love the Great Dining Bus concept and you will not be surprised to hear that we really enjoyed our long lunch yesterday. The afternoon was relaxed and very well spent with friends new and old! The Dining Bus gave us of several delicious courses, and a glimpse of what the excellent Milford on Sea restaurants have to offer, … we will be back to enjoy them even more!”

The next Dining Tour takes place on Saturday 29th June 2013
