The Highstreet Kitchen is an elegant but relaxed fine-dining restaurant in the heart of Lymington. Housed inside a Grade-II listed Georgian townhouse, the spacious dining room is light and bright, with a cool elegant atmosphere best suited for large events. A long-term project of chef Gavin Barnes, the restaurant showcases the very best seasonal and local produce from Hampshire and the surrounding counties. The menu is executed with honesty, precision, and British-European culinary character. Fostering close relationships with rural suppliers and producers, the menu changes frequently to put the best produce first and foremost.
It’s a sizeable space with a maximum standing capacity of 85 guests able to accommodate a variety of events, from birthday parties to corporate events to child-friendly anniversary celebrations. As a bonus, there is a small garden terrace perfectly suited for balmy summer evenings. The venue is also bookable for a sit-down banquetting experience catering for up to 40 guests - presenting an ideal opportunity to sample an expertly roasted Cote de Boeuf, with hand-cut chips, hollandaise, and Hampshire watercress.
The interiors reflect the no-frills, no-fuss attitude of the menu. With simple but striking marble table tops, leather banquettes, olive-coloured seating, and hanging glass lights the space is bright and airy but with a glamorous ambience ideal for full-venue hire. Armed with a team of friendly and knowledgeable staff, it’s a setting that can easily impress.
The Highstreet Kitchen menu also offers a variety of fish and vegetarian options plus an impressive selection of desserts, including a Cox’s apple crumble with hazelnut and vanilla. And with an approachable but diverse wine list, several mocktails, and non-alcoholic options there is something to satisfy even the fussiest of taste buds.
The Highstreet Kitchen is a versatile venue able to accommodate a variety of occasions - a celebratory company party, a Christmas get-together, or an engagement dinner - to enquire, simply get in contact with the events and reservation team.
