A winning dish begins with great quality ingredients which have been sourced with care. We get all our fish and vegetables fresh from the local market every day, and we proudly source our meat and poultry from the award-winning butchers, Owen Taylor & Sons. They are based locally in Derbyshire and supply us with the finest quality produce, locally sourced, wherever possible.
