Our Executive Head Chef, Ricci Smith

His passion for local ingredients developed from this historic fishing town, where the very best local catches and locally reared meats were available to him. His love of the local area and close relationships with local suppliers has brought enthusiasm and a new direction to the dining experience to the Dartmouth Bar and Bistro. Ricci has created his menus to reflect the delights our local area has to offer.

 Sourcing the best local suppliers

Robert ensures that you experience the very best of local food… all our beef is locally sourced from Dunterton Farm in Shaldon, Bruckner & Sons of Dartmouth supply dairy products to the club, while seafood is purchased from Dartmouth Fishmongers “Moby Nicks” and local fish markets. The Dartmouth Smoke House provide all smoked food to the kitchen, bread is made daily by our own dedicated kitchen team! And our Ice Cream is supplied by the renowned Dartmouth Ice Cream Company. In addition, the hotel purchases only fair-trade coffee, tea and sugar, while all fruit and vegetables are purchased from a local wholesaler in Totnes.

We trust you will enjoy your dining experience and the selection of dishes on offer.  Should you have any specific dietary requirements or would like more details on allergen information, please let us know. Ricci and his team will be only too pleased to accommodate your requirements.
