New Restaurant, New Kitchen, New Team

A gritty earthy smoke house with theatre dining created using coal fired grills, smoked meats and bespoke clay ovens provided by The Clay Oven Company.

The freshest Seafood and the biggest cuts of Beef. Indulgent, lavish and with flavours very much at the forefront of the dining experience.

Our meat – sourced and produced by 5^th generation family owned butcher Althams will be cut and cooked to order. Our Oysters will be delivered fresh daily by The Wright Brothers and served on beds of ice with the crispest white wines as accompaniments.

The Avon Gorge is looking for Commis Chefs. Chefs who have worked with fresh produce, who have pride in sending out the very best dishes day in day out and who want to join a brand that will invest in their future.
