British seasonal tasting menus or A la Carte that, to avoid waste, use only one meat at a time. Situated in a beautiful Victorian building, enjoy a relaxed, thoughtful & personal dining experience providing value for money found nowhere else!

The restaurant is produce driven; we work with the very best producers & suppliers in the UK.

The drinks list, and optional pairing, has a strong focus on drinks with low-intervention production methods. These are wines, cider & beers that are full of life & represent the way we feel all agricultural products should be made, farmed or reared: with a focus on respect - towards the natural environment and everyone involved in the process.

Walk-Ins welcome

The food at Nest is outstanding, and the service great. We went for lunch, and so there weren't many around. Would definitely return (once we've saved enough to go again!).

Nest frequently changes their menu, with each season specialising a different range of seasonal ingredients. I keep coming back to try every season! The cooking is always excellent - some classic dishes and others more innovative, but always excellent.

Loved NEST the food, the service the cocktails everything was spot on. My only complaint, why not change the cutlery after each course? I'd prefer not to be licking the sauces of my cutlery from the previous course before starting the next one
