"Our whole group, all 13 of us, agreed that it was some of the best food we had ever had. All locally sourced and beautifully put together, we couldn't have asked for more."

"From start to finish it felt truly special and completely effortless. The beef Wellington was absolutely outstanding, perfectly cooked and incredibly succulent."

Jen Troman Celebration

"Mark delivered a 4-course sit down dinner for 30 guests at our house. Service was impeccable, and while we finished celebrating the team did an excellent clean-up job. I cannot recommend Mark highly enough!"

The Dorset Story

Rooted in Dorset

Dorset isn't a marketing tag — it's who we are and where we source the majority of our produce. From day-boat fish landed at Poole harbour to organic vegetables from Ringwood and dairy from Shaftesbury, every dish tells the story of this incredible county. We know most of our suppliers by name.
