We were delighted to be awarded an AA Rosette in April 2014 and to join a very select group of restaurants achieving this level; it is an accolade of which we are justifiably proud.So what can you expect when dining at The Coach House Restaurant? That’s probably best explained by quoting from the AA itself who say “These restaurants achieve standards that stand out in their local area. They serve food prepared with care, understanding and skill, using good quality ingredients.” However we recognise that many of our diners will have had a day walking and enjoying the open air and while they want quality they also want a reasonable quantity so our guarantee is that you will get a lovely meal, beautifully presented and enough of it to ensure you don’t leave hungry!
The Coach House Restuarant is open from 18.30 to 21.00. Please note that children under the age of 8 are not permiited in the Coach House Restaurant but are most welcome in the Bistro.
Our Chef, Tom Lefevre
Although still a young man Tom has already had a broad and impressive career starting at the famous Langan’s Brasserie in London and Le Meridian in Piccadilly, followed by a number of high-end kitchens including one with a Michelin star and another with 4 AA Rosettes. He spent some time teaching at Fareham Catering College and then as Head Chef at a well-respected restaurant on the South coast. We’ve been trying to work out how to describe Tom’s style of food without falling back on the usual clichés but all we’ve come up with is great local ingredients, seasonality and cooked with flair & imagination. We’re not sure that tells you much so you better come along to sample it!
