The Lost Kitchen

Wood-fired feasting, cosy candlelit suppers and a contemporary rustic charm await when you drive through winding lanes to The Lost Kitchen. Housed in an old threshing barn in the hamlet of Chettiscombe near Tiverton, this unique restaurant is the epitome of bucolic rural living

Visit by day and your brunch or lunch will be festooned with big skies and sunlight thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows framing the countryside views. In the evening, feasting is cosy and atmospheric due to characterful stone walls, exposed roof trusses and a wood-fired oven delivering flame-driven flavours. Read our review of the restaurant.

Such rural vibes are not merely aesthetic though. A respect for kitchen-garden ingredients, delicious local produce and traditional country skills (flame-licked cooking, foraging and fermenting to name a few) are showcased in wood-roasted dishes, organic sourdough pizza and house kombucha.

Guests can relax while mixing and matching a medley of sharing plates, small morsels and larger dishes, but there’s nothing laid back about the care and hard work going on behind the scenes. An itinerary of marinading, infusing, preserving and brewing (the restaurant makes its own beer and cider) means every mouthful is utterly delicious.

Roast line-caught pollock, for example, is given extra love with the addition of braised leeks, ember-roasted baked potato, a dousing of crème fraîche tartar, and dill and caper dressing. With plenty of meaty, vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options on the modern European menu, The Lost Kitchen is the kind of rural-cool location where everyone can find something exceptional to feast on.
