AS OUTDOOR hospitality venues across the country reopen next week, a new offering will be available in Wilton.

The Pembroke Arms is set to open The Garden Kitchen, from Wednesday, April 14, and will be open 12-9.30pm Wednesday to Sunday. 

Along with Nole pizza, The Garden Kitchen, which sits hidden around the corner, is an asado/parilla style grill.

Handmade by Mike at Unorthodox Metal Works, the grill has been designed specifically for food over fire.

The kitchen will be open every Wednesday to Sunday, with chef Toddy Westropp grilling locally-sourced meats and fish straight off the boats at Brixham

At the head of the garden perched on decking and alongside the grill is a bar that is housed in a refurbished shipping container.

The bar will serve a selection of summery cocktails along with the pubs’ usual offering of draught beer and local ale.

With seating available both under a stretch tent and uncovered, there is plenty of space for all to enjoy come rain or shine.

In line with the latest Covid-19 guidance, all guests will be served from the table and the venue will be welcoming group sizes in accordance with the COVID guidance relevant at the time.

Ethan Davids said: “We are really fortunate to be building on the success that we had last year and utilising our huge walled garden. We have a great team of creative people on board and we are lucky to have renowned chef Toddy Westropp manning the hots.

"Naturally, we’re hoping for a long and enduring warm summer, but should the weather not go our way, our heated terrace and open fire will scare off the chill.

"Our Winter Warmer brought together an eclectic mix of local foodies of all ages, and we’re hoping our Garden Kitchen will add another string to our bow!”
