Description

Pasture is a Steak House & late night bar brought to you by Chef Owner Sam Elliott. Pasture restaurant is a celebration of fire-based cooking and incredible local ingredients. The in-house butchers handpick and prepare the very best meat from farms in the south west and our chefs use it to cook beautiful, modern dishes. In a nutshell Pasture is about fine dining for everyone, with slick, engaging service, top-quality food and a team whose knowledge is as strong as it’s passion. 

Our restaurant is set for theatre and our open kitchen showcases charcoal grills and dry ageing cabinets displaying whole cuts of beef ready to be cut into our signature steaks. We select beef from farms in the southwest, all of which have been raised on Pasture. We only buy suckled Native breeds of beef and dry age it for a minimum of 35 days. Our in house butchers cut the steaks fresh for each service. House cuts are generally larger steaks designed for sharing; these could range from 1kg Tomahawks & Porterhouse’s to the prize Chateaubriand. Our Steaks are cooked over charcoal and wild cherry wood for extra flavour. 

The hourly rate for this role includes a competitive share of Tronc. 100% of Tronc is distributed to the staff, giving approximately £8000-£10,000 per year above the standard salary rate of £33,500.00.
