For Little Milton residents or those from in and around Oxfordshire, The Lamb Inn is a 16th century free house and restaurant serving hyper-seasonal menus, elevated pub food and a curated wine list. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, such as a birthday or anniversary, or simply want to enjoy a fantastic meal out with loved ones, consider hiring a semi-private space in The Lamb Inn's dining room.
The space is full of character with low ceilings, rustic beams and stone walls. Charming touches like old fashioned coppe jelly moulds are mounted on the walls, and come winter, the roaring, open fireplaces are perfect for bringing people together. While The Lamb Inn doesn't have a dedicated private dining room, it can easily accommodate large bookings, or even offer exclusive use for all-out celebrations.
Another important part of a successful private dining event is, of course, the food. The kitchen is run by Michelin trained head chef Nat Berney who has crafted a seasonally changing menu and a curated wine list. To get a flavour of what's on offer, examples of starters include beetroot and whipped goats curd salad made from wood-fired ruby beetroots, with winter leaves, hazelnuts, and lemon dressing, or chicken liver parfair with with red onion and bacon jam, smothered on sourdough.
Main dishes tick off 32-day aged ex dairy cow steaks, alongside Creedy Carver duck and fresh fish catches. Think line caught brill, wood fired on the bone and dressed in a blood orange and harissa butter, green chilli dressing with garlic cabbage and and agria crispy potatoes. For dessert, your guests would be hard-pressed to resist the rhubarb and custard panna cotta.
For Sunday celebrations, consider hiring a space in the restaurant to enjoy its legendary Sunday roast with your nearest and dearest.
