Seasonal and British Pub Menu
Our menus are designed to highlight the very best ingredients our region has to offer.
We cook simply, allowing every component to stand proud—no frills, no tricks, just flavour, okay maybe a few tricks…
While we prioritise local sourcing, we occasionally select exceptional ingredients from further afield, because every great dish begins with the highest quality produce. Only our suppliers know how strict we are in receiving the best of the best when it comes to produce. We scrutinise everything that enters our kitchen door and if it doesn’t reach our high standard, we send the produce back!
We change our menus every eight weeks that allows us to highlight the best produce available at that time of year.
