Eat and Drink - Brown Trout Inn

Eat & Drink

Our kitchen team love preparing food from dawn to dusk and take pride in using locally sourced ingredients to prepare a wide range of dishes from breakfast through lunch and dinner. You can rely on us for anything your taste buds desire from an All Day Breakfast, homemade wheaten bread and flavoursome soups. From lighter bites and menu classics, to the winter warming, slow cooked dishes such as braised beef, lamb shank and a really fishy, fish pie.
