Dinner menu sampleOur Kitchen Garden
Using produce from our local growers puts small-scale, sustainable farming back at the heart of the food system we all depend on and provides a wider variety of healthy, seasonal ingredients for our menus.
Our drinks menu
Our extensive drinks menu includes a range of Kent ales, botanical cocktails and a carefully curated wine list. We champion small production winemakers who handcraft wines. Good soil and good wine making practices make for a great wine, which is why organic and biodynamic winemaking take centre stage. Our diverse wine list includes award-winning wines and features some of the world’s greatest producers from the classic regions of the old and new world, as well as bringing innovative, up-and-coming wines to the forefront.
