Seasonal produce from the UK’s best suppliers

Inspired by the seasons, our chefs use only the best British ingredients on our menus. Our seafoods come exclusively from UK waters, while our meat is all sourced from Cumbria, supporting family-run Lake District fells and smallholdings. And with English wines, London beers, and cheese from nearby Neal’s Yard Dairy in Borough Market, we’re in love with local on the plate and in your glass.
