Embrace the Flavours of Autumn
As the leaves turn, our kitchen embraces the rich, comforting flavours of the new season.
Make Your Turkey a Triumph – Join Our Workshop
“In heaven, it is always autumn.” If the Renaissance poet John Donne were alive today, he might well add that there is always a touch of culinary heaven to be found at Chapter One. As ever, Chef Patron Andrew McLeish and his team are making the utmost of the season’s magnificent game, fresh fish, and vibrant local produce to curate an exceptional modern European menu.
To tempt you away from your cosy fireside, we are delighted to introduce our seasonal lunch menu, offering an outstanding fine dining experience at exceptional value. Infused with the true spirit of autumn, the menu features divine seasonal inspirations—from a rich velouté of potimarron with roasted pumpkin seeds to succulent roasted pheasant accompanied by pancetta and earthy field mushrooms. To finish, enjoy our delicate blackberry mousse served with freshly foraged blackberries and a crisp apple yoghurt sorbet.
This not-to-be-missed seasonal offering is available Monday to Saturday at lunchtime until late November.

Looking Ahead to the Festive Season
With November fast approaching, the festive season will soon be upon us. Now is the perfect time to begin planning your winter celebrations. We have meticulously crafted our festive menus to combine traditional British favourites with exciting, contemporary modern European dishes—such as perfectly roasted Loch Duart salmon served with celeriac purée, cavolo nero, and sautéed trevise in a delicate balsamic dressing.
If you are planning an elegant Yuletide gathering for friends, family, or esteemed colleagues, our beautifully appointed private dining room guarantees a truly memorable event. Accommodating between 20 and 50 seated guests, the space is fully air-conditioned and features its own private bar and dedicated cloakroom for exclusive use.
