In such fraught times, comforting fare is proving to be one of the finest medications around. The Menu would be hard-pressed to think of anything more comforting than a fine bowl of stew — in particular a Beef & Red Wine stew (with a pâté maison starter and apple crumble for dessert). This is part of the Crawford Gallery Café three-course menu available on Fridays and Saturdays as part of their click-and-collect offering.
