Using the very best local and seasonal produce sourced from a a 40 mile radius, our tasting menus are an interactive dining experience.

You will meet our Head Chef Adam Jackson and his team who will be serving classic British cuisine with modern plating techniques.

Each dish will be carefully paired with one of our wines selected by our General Manager Alex Stainsby to create a memorable dining experience.

The tasting menu concept is centred around the history of the 17th Century building in which the Rattle Owl resides. The concept was born from stories of its Roman history, contributions to the environment and our commitment to sustainability.

⭐️EXCITING NEWS⭐️

We are delighted to announce that Adam Jackson will be joining the Rattle Owl on the 19th May heading up our tasting menu restaurant as well as our new Tansy Beetle bar offering.

Adam comes with a fantastic pedigree having headed the kitchen at the Black Swan at Oldstead when it won its first Michelin star, through to running his own restaurant for 6 years and more recently at the Bow Room in York where he earned 3 AA Rosettes in each. Adam is joined by General Manager Alex Stainsby, having worked closely together for a few years.

"I'm so pleased to be joining The Rattle Owl at such an interesting time with the launch of its new Tansy Beetle Bar as well as developing the beautiful upstairs rooms for my own tasting menu. I've long been a fan of Clarrie's commitment to sustainability right from inception and being able to work with some amazing local suppliers as well as having the freedom and creativity that comes from working in an independent restaurant is very exciting. Given the cost of living crisis it is critical for the sector to be able to offer our customers dining options at different price points.”- Adam Jackson

Being able to pay homage to the Tansy Beetle - our own native York species and play a part in raising awareness of its endangered status makes me incredibly proud. We have the blessing of the Tansy Beetle Action Group and will be working on various efforts to help support the Tansy Beetle's native habitat.

We are so grateful to Tom Heywood who steered the restaurant through some of the most turbulent times the industry has known and wish him and Laurissa well on their new endeavours.

From the 19th May the Tansy Beetle Bar menu will be available to book on the ground floor only and our tasting menu available in our beautiful upstairs rooms from the 1st June. Sunday lunch will be available 12-6pm every Sunday.

You can book our bar menu for the 19th May by emailing us at [email protected].

To book our other dates select the link on our story or visit our website.

We look forward to you trying our new offerings.

Clarrie, Adam and Alex at the Rattle Owl.
