| Dix Neuf get’s a face lift |
 |
|
Dix Neuf on both islands has had a facelift. Dix Neuf is neither a restaurant, nor a wine bar, a café or pub but a combination of all these things and more, giving it a wide appeal across all age groups. The floor has been refurbished and the inside and outside have been redecorated. The canopies, furniture and furnishings have all been replaced in a smart new livery. Classical French touches have been added to provide a more appealing brasserie atmosphere.
There is also an exciting new menu, starting with breakfast, through a daylong range of teas and coffees to rival and coffee shop, moving onto hot and cold sandwiches and light meals, a fabulous range of appetisers and main dishes, including Dix Neuf classics and scrummy puddings.
So what are you waiting for? Go and check it out yourself.

| Ale Trail – Walk up a thirst! |
 |
|
Our Jersey ale trails that we launched have been going down very well with locals and tourists a like. The walking routes take in local landmarks and pubs along the way.
Ale trails have become increasingly popular throughout the British Isles since the first ones began in the West Country more than 20 years ago. Now Jersey has six new self-guided opportunities for Islanders and visitors to wander country lanes, test their stamina on coastal paths or criss-cross the town centre pausing for refreshment en route. The booklet details each route and points out landmarks, places of historical interest and areas of natural beauty. Blue Badge guide Arthur Lamy devised the routes and researched and wrote the interpretation.
Why not take in some fresh air, try some local beers, wines and ciders and food using local produce a long the way! As with all such trails, you get your guide book stamped in the participating pubs and once you have a full set you can claim a free tee-shirt.
We can’t think of a better way to explore Jersey!
Each route starts and ends at a pub and you are welcome to leave your vehicles in the car parks. The pubs featured are: Cock and Bottle, Post Horn and Town House in St Helier; St Mary’s Country Inn; Trinity Arms, Victoria in the Valley, St Peter; Rozel Bar and Restaurant and Le Hocq Inn on St Clement's Coast Road.
The trails are:
1. - Town Trail: Taking in the history of the Royal Square, St Helier's markets and the Town Hall.
2. - St Mary's Country Inn: Rural tranquillity, the historic north coast and the Paternosters.
3. - Trinity Arms: Agriculture, ancient defences, Howard Davis Farm, motor racing and the
