Harden's survey result
Summary
Part of the Balcaskie Estate – which provides much of the produce for the menu – this seventeenth-century pub is run by chef James Ferguson and front-of-house Alethea Palmer, and continues to be highly rated for its short-but-impactful menu that would look just as at home in Shoreditch as it is in the middle of Fife.
Summary
“Great ingredients” and “brilliant cooking” is a formula that has worked to a T at this seventeenth-century pub owned by the nearby Balcaskie estate, which provides much of the produce on the menu. After a two-year refurb it reopened in 2019 under chef James Ferguson and front-of-house Alethea Palmer, both former Rochelle Canteen staff. James is by all accounts “a chef who truly delivers on the simple and local mantra”.
Summary
This revamped, old Scottish boozer reopened in September 2019 after a two-year refurb. Owned by the nearby Balcaskie Estate, its pedigree is promising, with both chef James Ferguson and front-of-house Alethea Palmer hailing from good positions at Rochelle Canteen.
