I gifted the beginner foraging course to my mother for her birthday and we had an amazing time. Marc was knowledgable and passionate about foraging, and we both feel inspired and confident to start looking for some beginner species independently. Lunch was delicious and it was especially great to taste some of our finds. Thanks for a fantastic day out.
My daughter and I had a wonderful day yesterday on the beginners foraging course. Mark, our foraging guide, was brilliant, he was so informative and delivered his vast knowledge in such a friendly, relaxed way it made the 3 hours we spent in the beautiful Rougham Estate fly past. We gained so much from him and I for one can't wait to get out into the countryside and start foraging.
After our tour, we sampled some of the mushrooms we had seen in the woods. We were then treated to a 3 course meal with wine cooked by the creative chefs there who use as much foraged foods as possible in their delicious dishes. For those who enjoy gourmet food, visiting The Forage Kitchen is a must and I will definitely be returning to sample the taster menu!
I highly recommend this experience.
Thank you to all the staff, we truly had a great day.
Another brilliant evening at the Forage Kitchen... this time the summer menu, light, delicate and well-crafted seasonal (and very tasty) food.... It's a delight to watch Tom and Ric in action constructing each course, and then bringing it over and explaining their works of art.. Nancy is brilliant with front of house, and the mocktails, including many using foraged ingredients, complement the meal very well. Highly recommended.
Brilliant day here on a beginners foraging course. A really nice group of people, Mel the head forager was very informative. 3 hours foraging in the forest learning about mushrooms, fungi and plants and then back for a fabulous 3 course lunch. Thank you 😁
Excellent and unusual food. It was a real treat and paired with the wine, was stunning! I don't know why more people don't know about this place! Fine Dining, incredible service in a cosy environment... perfect!
A great experience. Purchased the foraging course for husband's birthday. We were blessed with good weather. Met some lovely people, and ended the occasion with a lovely taster meal. Really recommend this for something different, and guidance for looking at what is beneath out feet on the forest floor.
5-star restaurant ✨️
Great atmosphere, and well-presented food.
You can see chefs while they prepare your food.
Every dish is described before tasting 😋
I felt like in Four Seasons with reasonable prices.
I will be back.
Worth every penny.
Quite simply - excellent food, service, staff and ambience. Wonderful and inventive six courses (small plates). Very high quality food. Small venue with only 20 covers - so nice atmosphere. We can up from London to visit and had zero regrets.
Our first time at Forage Kitchen and we don't know why we've not been before, but we're certainly going again soon!
I've been lucky enough to eat at many fine dining and Michelin starred establishments, but this was one of the best meals and dining experiences of my life. Informal and relaxed, with truly stunning food. I wish I lived nearer.
