The Kings Arms Montacute Food and Drink

Gye, a local business man, has engaged the talents of an imaginative and passionate chef who has created some exciting new menus to tempt. The ever changing menus currently offer starters such as Wild mushroom and Dorset blue vinny pannacotta with a ‘Montacute’ beetroot and apple salad £5.50 and Pigeon with roasted hazelnuts and an endive salad £5.95. Main dishes include Pan fried sea bass with pesto mash and confit tomatoes and a ginger buerre blanc £15.50, or perhaps a delicious Pan fried Gressingham duck breast with a potato and chorizo ragout and a duck jus £16.50.

Whatever your choice don’t forget to leave room for a scrummy homemade dessert such as Raspberry cheesecake, with white chocolate mousse and fresh blackberries, or maybe the Dark chocolate and grand marnier torte with orange sorbet. There is also a lunchtime menu which includes pub classics such as traditional fish and chips, local pork sausages and mash and a selection of freshly cut sandwiches. Vegetarian options are always available and there is a comprehensive wine list to complement your meal. A Traditional Sunday Roast Lunch is served from £9.50, bookings advised
