We're live‑fire specialists. That means real flames, real smoke, and real flavour. Our chefs cook the way humans have gathered for centuries - over fire - but with a modern edge that turns every dish into something unforgettable.
Drawing on decades of culinary experience, we craft every dish with care, precision, and a touch of theatre. From the first sizzle to the final flourish, our chefs focus on balance, seasonality, and beautiful presentation, so every plate feels abundant and considered. New Forest Produce, Local Heroes
The New Forest isn't just where we're based - it's our larder, our inspiration, and our home. We source as locally as possible, working with incredible producers, farmers, and makers who share our obsession with quality. When you taste our food, you're tasting this place. Flavour‑First, Every Time
Whatever you choose from our menus, you and your guests can expect top‑quality catering every time. Flavour‑first cooking, generous portions, and seamless service come together to create an effortless dining experience that tastes as good as it looks.

Our Story
We're incredibly fortunate to be on the doorstep of the New Forest, where some of the finest produce in the country is grown, reared, and crafted. From award-winning cheeses to exceptional meats from New Forest Pastures butchers, we have access to the very best ingredients right on our doorstep.
90% of our products are locally sourced, and we're proud to have been awarded the New Forest Marque in recognition of our commitment to championing local producers. Everything we serve is fresh, handmade, and always locally sourced—because we believe great food starts with great ingredients, and there's nowhere better to find them than right here in our backyard.
Slow & Low smoking and flame-roasted cooking are at the heart of what we do. We cook over open flames using oak and apple wood alongside premium lumpwood charcoal, creating a beautifully balanced smoky flavour that elevates both vegetables and meats to something truly special.
Grills & Thrills is where the real excitement happens—live-fire BBQ cooking over glowing coals. From sizzling steaks and juicy burgers to charred vegetables and smoky seafood, we bring the energy and spectacle of the grill straight to your event. It's fast, flavourful, and full of theatre, with every dish cooked to order in front of your guests.
Our sides, salads, and trimmings are every bit as impressive as our mains. Locally sourced, lovingly prepared, and thoroughly contemporary, every dish is finished to an exquisite standard that never fails to wow your guests.
