Splendidly rustic and unpretentiously beautiful in its rural façade, the Pot Kiln is a country pub that serves delicious and simple fare, particularly wild game, although the other dishes there are equally challenging. Mike Robinson, Chef, owner and fish and game provider of this homely restaurant is a well known face on TV and has also found time to write a few books. The ingredients they use are sourced locally from small producers, while the wild game and fish are generally caught by Mike himself from amongst Bershire's extensively rolling acres.

Focussing largely on simple presentation but flavour-full preparation techniques, the kitchen comes up with wildly popular starters such as a warm salad of wood pigeon, crispy bacon and black pudding. The main course lets you indulge in slow braised wild rabbit with rosemary and garlic while puddings feature classic seasonal crumble with custard or a selection of cheeses with homemade bread. Carefully chosen wines comprise the list along with the usual beers and ales.
