Celebrate Burns Night in Kendal with Booths at Wainwright’s Yard

At Booths in Wainwright’s Yard, Kendal, you’ll find everything you need to create a memorable Burns Night feast.
The Centrepiece: Haggis from McSween’s
Haggis is the heart of any Burns Night supper.

Whether you’re a seasoned haggis fan or trying it for the first time, they’ll bring an authentic taste of Scotland to your table.
The Perfect Potatoes for Neeps and Tatties
A Burns Night feast wouldn’t be complete without neeps and tatties – mashed swede and potatoes – to accompany your haggis. Booths stocks seasonal favourites like Jersey Royal Potatoes, which add a touch of luxury to this simple yet essential side dish. Light, fluffy, and easy to prepare.
