Seasonal, Local, and Inspired
Our culinary philosophy centres on the belief that great food should be simple, fresh, and delicious. We are passionate about creating dishes that showcase the finest seasonal ingredients from the local area. Our menus evolve throughout the year to reflect the changing seasons, ensuring that every visit to Hart Street Tavern offers something new to discover.
Whether it’s tender cuts of venison from the Culden Faw Estate, game birds from the Phillimore Estate, or fresh produce from local farms across the Chiltern Hills, we are proud to support our local community. Every dish is prepared with care, from our flame-grilled steaks and seafood to our hearty vegetarian options, all designed to reflect the vibrant flavours of British cuisine.
We also offer an extensive wine list, hand-selected from local vineyards and international estates, along with signature cocktails that complement our seasonal dishes.
Our Cooking
At Hart Street Tavern, we believe in crafting our dishes using open-fire cooking techniques that bring out the natural flavours of our carefully selected ingredients. Our kitchen is equipped with state-of-the-art open-fire grills, allowing us to serve rustic, flame-grilled dishes that are both rich in taste and unique in their preparation. This traditional method of cooking infuses our dishes with smoky, natural flavours, making each meal a memorable experience.
