We’re thrilled to announce that our restaurant has been awarded Runner-Up at the Tendring 4 Growth Business Awards 2025 in the Environmental Impact category! This recognition celebrates businesses that go above and beyond in sustainability, innovation, and community commitment—and we’re proud to be part of that movement.

We had another great evening at Wrights of Frinton butcher’s for the second year! Our head chef Henry Smith cooked up delicious, FREE venison burgers. Owner of the Blue Garden Cafe and farmer Guy Smith gave a live talk inside about local venison, as head butcher John gave a live demonstration of the best cuts! We were also very fortunate to be joined by our local Adnams for the best drinks in town for the evening. If you came by we hope you had a lovely evening & if you were not able to we hope to see you next year!

Congrats to our young super-star chef Dan Farley whose ‘Quince Whirls’ have been shortlisted to appear in the finals of the National Cake Awards held at the Food Show at the NEC in late April. Having perfected his whirl bakes Dan has added a bit of local zest in the fillings by using Quince jam in the fillings.
