Introducing our Guest Chef at The Bath Priory


We are delighted to welcome Adam Simmonds as our guest chef at The Bath Priory until the end of the year.
 

Named by the Good Food Guide as one of the decade’s ‘chefs to watch’, Adam Simmonds has built a remarkable reputation leading some of Britain’s finest kitchens, earning a coveted Michelin star twice. His food is led by the seasons, combining classic cooking with modern techniques to enhance flavours and craft dishes which are both delicate and fresh yet intensely flavoured.

“Dining out should be an experience which engages all of your senses. You eat with your eyes first, then the aroma and burst of flavours hit you. But as a diner your experience is enveloped in the ambiance and service, and I look forward to working with the team at The Bath Priory to deliver all components to serve memorable meals during my time as guest chef”

Adam will be introducing a special menu encapsulating his signature dishes during his time with us alongside hosting a series of special events giving guests the opportunity to get to know the chef and his approach to cooking a little better. 

Guests can expect to enjoy mouth-watering dishes such Roasted langoustines, oyster puree, celery and horseradish, Roasted veal sweetbreads, cockles, cauliflower cous-cous and girolles or Beef fillet, watercress and nasturtium purée, bone marrow and red wine and Lemon parfait, fennel pollen ice cream, fennel granita, and olive oil jelly.
