Celebrate with our Classic Ploughman's Board 🧀

Enjoy a generous, rich, mature cheddar cheese wedge and a beautifully flavourful Stilton blue cheese.

We serve this wonderful cheese pairing alongside a traditional halved pork pie, premium Dorset ham, pickled onions, and a sweet red onion chutney. Finished with fresh grapes, celery sticks, chef’s coleslaw, a crisp side salad, and a warm, crusty ciabatta. 🥖

It is the perfect excuse to skip cooking today, catch up with a friend, and enjoy a relaxing afternoon at the Pantry. We hope to see you soon.

It’s , and we’re feeling especially grateful for the pollinators today. We know we owe a lot of that vibrant greenery and fresh air to the hard work of the bees 🐝

Our plant pots are in full bloom and the morning air is perfect. There’s no better place to sit back, watch the world go by, and appreciate the natural beauty around us.

So pop by and treat yourself. Take a moment to just be, and enjoy the buzz. ☕️🌿

We absolutely love meeting your pups! We're the perfect spot to grab a coffee, a snack, or a well-deserved post-walk drink while your dog gets some well-earned downtime.
