Alexis Soyer's 'THE PANTROPHEON'
Title page of one of the many rare Soyer books collected by Brian and now in his private collection of over 2,000 antiquarian cookery books on food and wine.
The Yeoldon House Restaurant is named after the famous Victorian chef Alexis Soyer - source of inspiration to proprietor-chef Brian Steele. The room has a casual elegance where you will feel comfortable in any attire. Brian takes great pride in cooking and presenting food well in a relaxing atmosphere. You will enjoy imaginative cuisine from a daily changing menu that incorporates fresh fish, meat and vegetables from the locality.
The seasonly appropriate Chef's Collection Menu, is priced at £30.00 for three courses. Brian is always happy to discuss individual requirements with guests - not only special dietary needs, but also favourite dishes.
The menu is complemented by an international wine list including the patron's 'Proprietor's Reserve'. Coffee is served in the lounge where a digestif or glass of port may be enjoyed.
In the morning, ease into your day with a leisurely Traditional English, and read your morning paper whilst watching the sun rise over the river Torridge. The restaurant seats up to 30 people with generously sized tables and excellent napery and place settings. It is open to both residents and non-residents. Special menus can be arranged for parties, receptions and formal occasions.
