Our Suppliers

We strongly believe in supporting the local community and choose suppliers from this area wherever possible. We want to give you fresh, tasty food and the best way is to buy from sources we know and can trust, buying organic where possible. We may buy a whole beef steer from a local farm or estate. We minimise "food miles" - the massive distance that foodstuffs are often transported to the detriment of the quality, the taste and the environment. Our "food radius is around 20 miles
