The 'Dog House' is the Kitchen and Smoke House here at Drovers Rest, opened in September 2020 to bring both our passions together; Beer and Food. Our main menu is our take on a classic pub menu, featuring our speciality; homemade sausages. Head to our Dog House page to find out more about our Dog House sausages.
The Dog House Menu also features our Drovers take on 'pub grub' with a blend of Beer-inspired dishes. All designed to showcase the partnership of good food and good beer.

We aim to use locally-sourced ingredients to create food that showcases Tom's passion and creativity, whilst retaining that home- cooked, comfort-food feel.
We are passionate about our food, all sourced locally, and our menu changes throughout the year to reflect the seasonal produce we acquire from our trusted suppliers.
