Bridport and District U3A Lunch Club 1
“The group usually meets on the 3rd Thursday of the month but can be flexible. By its nature it is mainly a social get together and we share interests and experiences and discuss topics raised by speakers from the U3A monthly meetings. We decide democratically amongst the group where we will eat the following month and we have enjoyed a range of different venues such as Haddon House, The George at Chideock, ‘Montein’ the Thai restaurant, Mangerton Mill, the Egg Cup, Washingpool, Hive Beach Café and Avenue in Bridport to mention a few. Being a tourist area there is a wealth of places to choose from and we have only been back to the same place once or twice over the three years we have been going. We must run out of venues eventually!”
Leader: Lois Edwards Telephone: 01308 482605
Bridport and District U3A Lunch Club 2
“Lunch Club 2 generally meets on the 3rd Tuesday of the month.

Each month a different member can choose the next venue and undertake to make the booking, so eventually we can all get to our favourite place.”
