A confident, sustainability-focused gastropub delivering restaurant-quality charcoal cooking in a stripped-back, serene setting.
Ordering Strategy
Start with the Quail Shish to share. For mains, the charcoal-grilled meats (Lamb or Beef) are the highlight, though the Ricotta Gnudi is a strong vegetarian contender. Save room for the Financier.
What to order
Quail Shish
This is the Baring's 'must-order' signature dish that has 'swiftly become the dish that's turning up on Instagram' due to its 'amazing' crispy skin and pul biber chilli oil.
Salt Marsh Lamb Rump
Described as 'a lamb dish and then some,' it features a smoky aubergine accompaniment that critics call 'quite amazing.'
Warm Almond Financier
An 'XXL' version of the classic pastry that is 'all chewy and gorgeous' and served warm from the oven with luscious cherries and cream.
Grilled Leeks and Gribiche
A plate of 'delicious weirdness' arranged like an 'appetising, mustard-coloured, hazelnut-flecked alien life form' that critics compared to a 'Magic Eye puzzle.'

Good to know
It is definitely a dining pub rather than a rowdy boozer, though there are stools at the bar for walk-ins. The kitchen is run by ex-Dabbous alumni.
