Celebrating 70 Years at Talbooth Restaurant

2022 is a special year in the life of a very special restaurant; Talbooth Restaurant is justifiably the flagship of Milsom Hotels and this year celebrates 70 years with seven spectacular events to celebrate seven decades.

Much time, thought and fun have gone into the preparation of the Platinum Festival and the marquee will look different at each event. The restaurant will be closed all week, so guests will be welcomed through the front door of Talbooth Restaurant onto the terrace and lawn and then into the Marquee.

ABF The Soldiers’ Charity is the Army’s national charity, supporting past and present soldiers and their families for life. They stand at the forefront of the Army family and helped 60,000 people in 63 countries around the world in the last year alone. The charity awards grants to individuals and families and when they hear of a person or a family in need, they aim to respond within 48 hours.

Milsom Hotels are proud to support the charity during the Platinum Festival for several reasons, first and foremost Gerald Milsom served in the Army Catering Corps which instilled in him a love of food and hospitality, without which maybe he wouldn’t have fallen in love with the Talbooth as he drove past in 1952.

Secondly, we have worked with the ABF on two previous and memorable parties where they provided an Army Band and auction prizes that money can’t buy. In return we have raised over £50,000 for the charity and we are keen to add to that amount.

Now more than ever, the Army needs funds to fulfil their pledge to help ‘their family’ and we are proud to add our contribution.
