Chef de Partie - Langford
We are a bold, award-winning business who pride ourselves in giving our chefs the freedom to create premium, seasonal menus that 'wow' our customers within an industry-leading environment. We run friendly, welcoming, and positive kitchens with high standards; always striving to be the best we can be.
We are looking for a Chef de Partie to join the family.
Located in the heart of Lower Langford, on the edge of the Mendip Hills AONB, the Langford is a historic village pub dating back to the 17th century. Newly refurbished inside and out, the Langford boasts beautiful new interiors and 7 boutique bedrooms.
In the kitchen our passion is local produce and field-to-fork sustainability, with menus that reflect this. Expect exciting seasonal dishes alongside hearty pub classics, created from the best ingredients our Somerset larder has to offer. This local approach also extends to our beer, with our very own award-winning Butcombe Brewery just down the road!
We offer a cosy pitstop for walkers, cyclists, locals (and your dogs!), and easily positioned for visiting Bristol, the airport and beyond. Our bedrooms are comfy, stylish and full of personal touches; perfect for rural relaxation, an indulgent weekend away, or passing through on business.
Looking for a private space to celebrate, meet or host an event? Our gorgeous first floor dining space is available for private hire.
