The Scenic Supper, Cotswolds

Redefining dining, is the only way we can describe the coolest new restaurant concept to hit Gloucestershire. The Scenic Supper is as innovative as it sounds, the brainchild of three friends, Toby Baggott, Sam Lawson-King and Scott Sullivan, who all had their own pre-lockdown hospitality businesses and came up with the quirky concept of glasshouse dining with a farm-to-fork ethos back in 2020.

Sound cool? It certainly is. Championing local, seasonal produce is The Scenic Supper’s raison d’etre, showcasing the Cotswolds’ finest produce on its 4 and 6 course pre-set lunch and dinner menus. The futuristic looking glasshouses are located at Todenham Manor Farm, near Moreton-in-Marsh and will be back in the Spring when warmer climes return. Until then the restaurant is upping its glass sticks and moving to the fabulous setting of Stone Barn in Lower Swell, near Stow-on-the-Wold.

This beautifully renovated barn is located at Fir Farm, an organic and sustainable working farm, and you can book in for your meal to remember between 10 November and 18 December. With full height windows looking out across miles of Cotswold countryside, it’s the full hit of an authentic Scenic Supper experience, but with a much warmer setting!

Expect top notch food from head chef Samuel Idione, who has trained under Rick Stein, and there’s a tempting choice of options, from meat to vegetarian. The King Stone Gin Bar will continue to offer delicious seasonal, gin-based cocktail menu using homemade shrubs, cordials and mixers alongside a carefully curated selection of English sparkling wines and locally made beers and ciders.

All tables and the 4 or 6 course pre-set menus are bookable and payable in advance and cost £50pp for the 4 course lunch or £70pp for the 6 course dinner menu.
