The Black Rat Restaurant was converted from a pub into a quaint and quirky restaurant that is situated on Chesil Street. A year after opening, the team acquired one of the most prestigious accolades in catering, a Michelin Star. Our ingredients are sourced from some of the best local suppliers that can be found and we have our own forager who brings the most seasonal and fresh products available. Located nearby is our kitchen garden where we grow some of our own herbs and vegetables, all of which helps to inspire the kitchen team to create their take on a “Modern British” menu. The wine list boasts some 80 wines with a balance between Old and New world from our supplier Ellis Of Richmond. The list contains some iconic wines that are great with delicious food but also it has balanced and well rounded wine that can be enjoyed without food. The atmosphere is relaxed but homely with lots to look at in all the rooms, and the service is informal but attentive.
