Food
Our philosophy is simple - all food served at The Jockey is:
- Locally sourced
- Seasonal
- Freshly cooked
- Reasonably priced but not undersold (with the same policy applied to drinks prices)
The relaxed nature of the operation is reflected in the menu - true classics rather than pretentious, over-complicated dishes. Simple food, done well. Menus are short(ish), with specials on offer and a good selection for vegetarians and vegans. Many of our smaller dishes make great sharing plates for tapas-style dining.
Sunday wouldn't be Sunday without a traditional roast, and we aim to create the perfect unhurried atmosphere in which to eat it - relaxing music, Sunday papers, fresh coffee, attentive staff.
THE PUB
Food is served throughout the pub. First and foremost the main area is accessible - whether eating or popping in for a pint you are able to do so without any formality. We operate a policy of no bookings being taken, with food being ordered and paid for at the bar.
HOW TO ORDER
- Make a note of your table number
- Order food and drinks at the bar
- Pay for what you're having or leave a card to start a tab
- Help yourself to table mats, cutlery, napkins and condiments
- Return to table (not forgetting your drinks)
- Sit back, relax and your food will be brought out to you

DINING ROOMS
Created from an unused room overlooking the Green, the former dispatch room for the old brewery, a section of the former residential accommodation upstairs and our cool new atrium, our Dining Rooms are intimate and drawing room-like, providing a calm space with table service as an alternative to the hustle and bustle of the Pub. With this in mind, we are happy to take bookings for the Dining Rooms.
