Taste the Best that Surprise you
California Tavern Menu
Starters here immediately impress, with king prawns wrapped in delicate filo pastry that arrive crisp, golden, and perfectly balanced with their natural sweetness. The baked goat’s cheese feels indulgent yet refined, its creamy richness lifted by a drizzle of balsamic glaze and the crunch of walnuts, making it a dish that lingers on the palate. Moving to the specials, the homemade partridge and duck pie stands out as a rustic triumph-hearty, flavorful, and steeped in traditional comfort, especially when paired with smooth mash, peas, and rich gravy. The giant Yorkshire puddings are a talking point in themselves, almost a meal-sized centerpiece, generously filled with either plump sausages or a slow-braised beef stew. Each option is drenched in gravy, the kind you can’t help but mop up until the plate is clean. For mains, the premium sausages and mash deliver exactly what you’d hope for-deep, savory flavors with a silky mash to match. The steak, ale, and mushroom suet pudding is robust, a proper pub classic with tender meat and earthy mushrooms enveloped in a suet crust. Finally, the Texas barbecue chicken brings a smoky, tangy kick, rounding off the menu with a bold American flair. Every plate feels both familiar and elevated, showcasing comfort food at its best.
