Our Menus

Our focus is on unique processes, using exceptionally high-end ingredients to create modern dishes that nod to our traditional Yorkshire roots. We offer 2 menus; The Core Menu and The Signature Menu which showcase the signature Roots dishes made using core processes that we have meticulously developed to preserve produce harvested from our farm and garden in Oldstead for months or even years.

Tommy Banks

Chef Tommy Banks’ talent is in itself truly remarkable. He began cooking at the family’s first restaurant, the Michelin-starred Black Swan Oldstead straight out of school and with no formal training. He was Britain’s youngest Michelin-starred chef in 2013 aged 24, and a winner of BBC Two’s Great British Menu in both 2016 and 2017. He also regularly appears on BBC’s Saturday Kitchen and MasterChef.
