Begin with an apple and celeriac soup with roasted hazelnuts, crispy sage leaves, lemon oil and sourdough bread, or the smoked trout pate with cucumber chutney and pickled beetroot.

For pudding, try the chocolate mousse with honeycomb, shortbread crumb, fresh raspberries and a jug of pouring cream, or a Clock House Farm apple and blackberry crumble with warm and creamy custard. Sundays bring a special treat with The Parrot’s roasts, available from noon until they run out — and believe us, you won't want to miss out on this well loved tradition. Soon enough, you could be sitting down to a delicious roast dinner with all the trimmings.
