Food

Our current food residency, Carter’s, offer modern British food and frequently changing menus. See below for a sample of what to expect.

Seasonality and sustainability are at the core of what they do as well as trying to find the best quality produce they can. They work with regenerative farmers and small boat fishermen who share the same ethos. Shrub for vegetables and cheese from the South Coast, The Ethical Butcher for meat and Woods/Henderson for fish. Please come and chat if you would like to know more.
