A one-off Easter Lunch offer was also offered in 2011 to mark the reopening of the facility following refurbishment. Another new offering was introduced in 2011 titled Seven Kingdoms Lunches every Sunday, taking its name from the famous "seven kingdoms at a glance" slogan. These lunches take a similar format to the Sunset Dinners but take place on Sunday afternoons and offer different menu options, namely a full traditional Sunday lunch with optional starters and desserts. Since their introduction these offers have also been very well received and owing to the unpredictable nature of the weather on the island, and specifically the mountain, these can be boarded on the day without booking in advance, making another good source of income. Capactity and availability are however limited owing to the remote location of the restaurant and its lack of access to suppliers to cater for last-minute diners on the busier days.

Famous quotes containing the word kingdoms:
“There was never a man born so wise or good, but one or more companions came into the world with him, who delight in his faculty, and report it. I cannot see without awe, that no man thinks alone and no man acts alone, but the divine assessors who came up with him into life,—now under one disguise, now under another,—like a police in citizen’s clothes, walk with him, step for step, through all kingdoms of time.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
