food & drink The Taverners Pub, Eating House & Shop PANE RUSTICO. “PEASANT BREAD”


If you have lived in or travelled to Italy or southern France, it’s very likely you have experienced this wonderful bread which is the staple of the people of the countryside. It is crusty and crunchy on the surface, and the interior has large holes, is translucent and yellowish, and is chewy. It is a bread that makes you know you are eating real food! This recipe is in two parts. Part one is left to ferment overnight, before mixing with part two the following morning – much like the way a traditional French Loaf is produced. It helps speed the process and means lovely warm bread is ready to eat even sooner.


Things You Should Know Almost everything we serve has been made by


us on the premises. We work hard to source ethically farmed,


great tasting produce,


majority of which is from the Island. We only ever serve you food that we would be happy to be served ourselves, which is why all our eggs, chickens, ducks & pork are free range. And YES every chip has been hand peeled, hand cut & triple cooked. Our Beef & Lamb come from Island farms All the time, as does locally shot game & vegetables when in season. Milk, cream & butter comes from Island dairy herds, the flour we use in our bread & pastry is from the Islands Stone-ground Flour Co. & our local cheeses come from I.O.W Cheese Company.


Don’t be Cheesy! If your looking for a gift with a difference or even a treat for yourself make sure you visit our shop selling lots of local produce, including local cheeses, hampers and Island made gifts.
