Here is just a little info to let you get to know our pub better...
Here is little potted history of our pub and the local area... if you have a spare minute or two and maybe a cup of tea (or is that a G&T), we think it's well worth read.
Deputy Manager
Before James came to us, he was with Brunning and Price for a year as a Roving manager, traveling around the country to help out those that needed him. We are happy that he has decided to put down his roots here with us. He has a passion for food and drink and has always enjoyed customer service roles, probably because he trained in the Performing Arts, so is rarely at a loss for something to say.
Head Chef
We are so fortunate to have Daniel working here with us. He has 2aa rosettes under his belt along with a plethora of his recipes being published in various different magazines and papers, he has even been reviewed by the savagely renowned Charles Champion and lived to tell the tale. When not in the kitchen you will find him either playing or watching basketball, cycling, riding his motorbike or watching others ride theirs in Moto GP. He also eats out whenever he can and then goes to the gym to counteract the effects.
Senior Sous Chef
After 10 years of bartending Viorel decided to step into the kitchen and in the last 6 years, has moved up steadily through the ranks KP to Sous Chef. Still keen to learn, there is not a day go by that he isn't his skills, which is to the benefit of us all. Cooking is Viorel's passion, but when he's not in his whites, he'll be spending time with friends, visiting family, playing chess, or partaking in a summer fishing trip or two.
Chef de Partie
James has joined us from The Bolney stage after spending four years working his way up the ranks. He started as a kitchen porter and quickly decided that he wanted a slice of the fast and furious kitchen action. James is now firing on all cylinders and we're proud to count him as an integral part of our kitchen crew.
Chef
After spending four and half years behind the pans at the Sydney Opera House, Tom returned to the UK to catch up with his friends and family. After taking a job at the Aspinall Arms in the Ribble Valley to save for a trip to Europe Tom fell in love with pub life and decided to stay on home soil and join the opening team at Parrot via one or two of our other pubs. Tom has buckets of creative talent and infectious energy which makes him a joy to have around, particularly when the going gets tough.
Chef
Having worked in in our sister pub the Refectory he is a perfect match to the Parrot bringing lots of passion to the crew, he loves everything about being in a strong kitchen team working hard for each other and producing delicious tasting dishes. When Peter is away from the kitchen he enjoys most of all going to the movies with friends.
