MOOR AT 13 and The Steam Packet Inn


Whether you fancy a cappuccino and croissant or pizza and a pint, Lottie Fern and Jamie Felton have got it covered. The dynamic couple now run two popular eateries in Kingswear – The Steam Packet pub and their new venture the Moor at 13 café. Steph Woolvin had a coffee with the pair…


itting in Moor at 13 looking out across the River Dart at the Naval College and supping a beautifully crafted mocha, I’m not alone. Since they opened in June, Lottie and Jamie have had a steady stream of customers, whether it’s locals popping in for a bacon roll, marina staff in need of refreshment or visitors wandering out from their holiday homes. There’s also school run traffic with the odd parent popping in for a cheeky latté after dropping off at Kingswear Primary. The décor is ‘industrial chic’, not Lottie’s words but she says that’s what customers are calling it. There’s an exposed concrete floor, scaffolding poles supporting shelves and reclaimed furniture from a flea market in Shepton Mallet. “My granddad is a retired builder in France and he and my nanna came over to help us set the place up,” Lottie explains. “But Jamie built the tables himself and he learnt how to tile and tiled all the front of the counter.” They weren’t entirely sure what look they would go for when they first bought the place and spent many hours on the


S


internet getting ideas. They’re open everyday except


Wednesday. A hearty breakfast menu is available from 7am and includes some already widely renowned scrambled eggs: “We get the eggs from Fountain Violet Farm just up the road,” says Lottie. “Ed, the farmer, cycles them down to us each morning on his bike!


“We’re lucky the two places are so close to each other as we can easily run up or down the road if one of us needs help”


The scrambled eggs go down a storm, either on their own or with bacon or a sausage.” During the day, it’s simple fresh food like a ploughman’s, soup or sausage rolls and then cakes in the afternoon. Lottie plans to create a deli section soon with tempting treats like olives, paté and Parma ham to eat in or takeaway. Behind the counter, on the scaffolding shelves, there’s an array of local products to buy including Otter Vale chutney,


South Devon Chilli Farm chocolate, apple juice from Stoke Gabriel and The Cornish Seaweed Company’s Seaweed Salad. Moor at 13’s alcohol licence means Devon Red cider is available at lunchtime. “Our tea is sourced from London” Lottie says with an apologetic smile. “It’s so good though and has won awards. When I first saw it, I thought it was hand cream because the box is so pretty!” They hope to use these goodies at Christmas to create luxury hampers. An added crowd puller is Alfonso the Spanish water dog who is a 10-month-old puppy and sits on the doorstep using his big green eyes to lure in children and attract dog walkers who quickly realise the place is dog friendly. “He is super friendly and calm. He loves the concrete floor because it stayed so cold during the hot summer days.” Moor at 13 is Lottie’s project and although Jamie helps out and often works in the kitchen, the Steam Packet pub is his baby. “We’re lucky the two places are so close to each other as we can easily run up or down the road if one of us needs help,” he says.
