You are here: Food & Drink > THE PIG - on the Beach
THE PIG-on the Beach, is a mellow country house hotel, perfectly situated along Studland Bay. Designed in the same shabby chic style that has become THE PIG’s signature, the hotel features the Kitchen Garden Restaurant, private room for dinner parties, indoor and outdoor bar and a wood fired oven serving a choice of Flatbreads.
The Roundhouse which is available for dinner parties is totally unique and very intimate. Overlooking Old Harry Rocks, this 12 person thatched summerhouse is located 50 metres from the main hotel adjacent to the kitchen garden.
In summer choose to dine inside or out, then take a walk around the gardens. You can also follow the path down to the beach and dip your toes in the fresh waters of Studland Bay. In winter, the roaring log fires will keep you toasty warm as you enjoy your mouth-watering meal.
The kitchen is overseen by Chef James Golding and Head Chef Andy Wright who’s two key lieutenants aren’t their sous chefs but forager and kitchen gardener. What can't be grown in the Kitchen Garden or extensive vegetable and fruit beds, is foraged or sourced locally - a further commitment to the 25 mile menu. The Kitchen Garden team work hand in hand with the chefs every day to make sure every plate is touched by the freshest and most authentic flavours.
As the ingrediants are constantly changing with the seasons, so is the menu. The sample menu gives you a flavour of what to expect, but it changes daily, even by the minute!. The menus are written around what is available in our walled Kitchen Garden or delivered to the door from the local suppliers. The menus will change depending on what the forager supplies and what the kitchen garden team deems to be in perfect condition.
The Pig servces uncomplicated and simple British garden food, true to the micro seasons and influenced by the forest and coast, with the emphasis squarely on fresh, clean flavours.
