I’m almost unbelievably fussy about the quality of ingredients that go into our food and you can be assured that we source the best. Most meat products come from Colemans Butchers of Colchester. Sausages are from Willow Hall Farm, Wix; an organic farmer with Pig and Beef herds who specialises in making sausages packed with meat and flavour. Fish comes from Direct Seafoods and Organic Vegetables are delivered by Riverford Organics who also supply Cheese, Eggs and Milk. Topped up by dry goods from near local shops such as the Wholefood Store in Manningtree, Waitrose and Morrisons supermarkets with Makro Cash & Carry supplying some bulk purchases, table napkins etc.

 

We make everything in our kitchen except sausages -both meat and vegetarian. Beefburgers , Chilli con Carne, and Lasagne are made here using Beef from Colemans Butchers.

 

Gordon and I are both Vegetarian and do specialise in Vegetarian food. We look to offer a wide choice as we know how hard it is to find enough choice elsewhere and we hope you like both our food and our selection in our seperate Vegetarian menu. In spite of being a vegetarian for over 30 years I am told I cook the best roast beef ever, and it’s perhaps surprising that I can do that whilst never eating it. It’s available every Sunday if you’d like to try it for yourself.

 

Food is cooked to order so expect to allow time for it to be cooked. If you’re in a hurry please mention it to waiting staff who will suggest quicker dishes.
