Menus

We can never say exactly what will be on our menu as it depends on what we get from our suppliers. An example of our autumn menu is printed below but it is subject to variation from day to day. The tasting menu is also variable but we always try to have our own butter, sea salt, cured ham and rhubarb sorbet available.

Our Menus

The Sportsman has 2 menus. The first is chalked up on the board and is changed daily depending on the ingredients that come from the farms, boats and game dealers.

The second is a tasting menu which has small dishes which include classics from our 9 years so far as well as new ideas. It is served with our own unpasteurized butter and homemade seasalt - If you would like to try the tasting menu please let us know when you book the table. It is available for tables of 6 or less and must be taken by the whole table. The tasting menu is not available on Saturdays or Sundays.

Tasting Menu

This is an example of our tasting menu. At the moment the menu must be pre-ordered (just let us know when you book) and is only available Tuesday to Friday (lunch and dinner inclusive) for a maximum of 6 people. Ingredients will vary.
