Elephant & Castle

The Elephant & Castle is situated in the pleasant village of Hemingfield and dates back to the 17th Century. Trish, Adrian and family took over two years ago, injecting new life into the place by offering quality, homemade restaurant food at pub prices and by excelling on service with a personal touch. A lovely separate dining area has been newly refurbished whilst still retaining the charm and character of the building.

At the Elephant & Castle you can enjoy distinctive, freshly prepared food everyday of the week, whether it's a full hearty breakfast, a bite at lunch, afternoon tea or something exquisite from the extensive evening menu.

Not to be missed is the very popular chef's specials board which changes on a regular basis. A typical meal might consist of a starter of king prawns tossed in chilli and lime butter, presented on fresh mixed leaves, followed by the trio of lamb with a redcurrant and mint reduction, served with sautéed potatoes and seasonal vegetables. To finish, try the mouth-watering homemade Bakewell tart. The quality of the chefs' flavours and presentation has seen an ever-increasing number of diners appreciating the Elephant & Castle experience - booking is essential as word is spreading.
