Is your current job lacking the right ingredients? Here at The Old Courthouse we’ve got everything you need. Our Head Chefs are integral to our seasonal, fresh food menu. If you are an experienced Head Chef, who relishes a fast paced environment you’ll be the perfect fit for us.

The Old Courthouse was designed in an 'Italianate style' by the surveyor of County Courts, Thomas Charles Sorby and built between 1869 and 1871. It's a truly stunning building with many of its key features still intact for all to see. The courtroom is largely unaltered after all these years with huge marbled columns reaching up to a glass window feature in the ceiling and well-worn wooden docks which would have some tales to tell if they could only talk.

Our chefs create delicious seasonally inspired menus in the theme of modern British cookery, there will always be hearty classic pub favourites as well as something a little different to excite, or a little lighter to suit all occasions.
