If you’d like to see James perform with us again, his upcoming dates are:
🎤 Friday 20 November
🎤 Saturday 28 November
🎤 Friday 4 December
🎤 Thursday 17 December
🎤 Thursday 31 December — FULLY BOOKED

JAMES DYER IS LIVE TONIGHT 🎤
We still have a few rare tables available—and considering it’s James, they really should be snapped up in an instant.
James has been singing with us for the past 15 years. He’s part of The Ginger Italian family, and we hope he’ll still be performing here for the rest of our lives.
His repertoire is unbelievable. One minute it’s Michael Bolton, then Andrea Bocelli, followed by Bruno Mars. From opera and classical to pop, soul, Motown and swing—James does it all.
🍽️ Three-course dinner
🕗 Tables from 7:45pm
🎶 Live music from 9pm–midnight
🍸 Swap your dessert for a cocktail if you prefer
Come and enjoy a very special Friday night with us.

EDUARDO’S DINNER HAS ARRIVED! 🍕😂
Tonight he’s treating himself to one of our favourites—the Ginger Italian Legend.
It starts as a classic Margherita Pizza with tomato, basil and mozzarella, then we top it with Parma ham, Parmesan and fresh rocket.
Eduardo appears to have added a little Gorgonzola to his as well. That isn’t included as standard—but ask us nicely and we’ll happily add it! 😉
Enjoy your dinner, Eduardo! 🧡

TUESDAY DESERVES BETTER THAN A TAKEAWAY BOX 🍝🍷
We’re open from 5pm tonight, with freshly cooked Italian food, cocktails, w**e and absolutely no washing up for you.
If you haven’t tried our Penne alla Vodka e Parma, this could be the evening to put that right: creamy vodka tomato sauce, Parma ham and plenty of flavour.
OR, come and try our Fresh Salmon in lime and creamy pesto. I had this one last Wednesday and it was phenomenal!
Come and make Tuesday feel like a little night out.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another lovely review
“Really great find… Just dropped in for 1 course and stayed for 3, great service. Can’t wait to go back!”
Thank you, Emmet 🧡 We’re so pleased you enjoyed your visit — and even happier that one course somehow turned into three! 😂
That’s exactly how we like an evening at The Ginger Italian to go: great food, relaxed atmosphere and no rush to leave.
P.S. We still have a few spaces available for Sunday lunch this weekend. If you fancy joining us, get your table booked before they’re gone. 🍝🥂

TODAY IS MALOU’S BIRTHDAY! 🎂
She might tell you she’s 21… but I think we all know she may be just a tiny bit older than that. 😉😂
Please join me in wishing Malou a massive Happy Birthday! ❤️
She works incredibly hard looking after everyone at The Ginger Italian — and I don’t just mean our customers. She looks after the whole team too.
She’s a huge part of the reason our customers love coming here, the team enjoy working here and everything somehow keeps running like clockwork.
Quite frankly, without Malou, I’m pretty sure my days at the restaurant would feel a LOT longer. 😂
So please give her loads of birthday love today…
And Malou — enjoy your birthday, have an amazing day, and then hurry up and get back to work. 😂🎉
Happy Birthday Malou ❤️
We all love and appreciate you more than you know.

Yes, Saturday 3 October is the birthday of our very own Malou. ❤️
She won’t actually be in the restaurant tomorrow, so instead, why not send her a birthday email and make sure she knows how loved she is?
The more birthday messages she gets, the better — because secretly, we all know she absolutely LOVES the attention. 😜🎂🥂
