Our philosophy
on your plate We only serve you food we’d be happy to be
served ourselves. This is why all our chicken, local eggs and
Warwickshire pork are free range. Our beef is 28 day dry-aged
from Herefordshire Cross herds. We avoid air-freighted fruit
and vegetables by buying seasonal and British produce wherever
possible. Our cheeses come from artisan producers. Sourcing
the best quality fresh ingredients from ethical producers
costs us more, but we know that if we can trust our suppliers,
then you can trust us.
