Say hello to Michael, our talented and passionate Head Chef, whose culinary expertise is the driving force behind the flavours you’ll find at The Skiff Inn. With an eye for detail and a deep respect for quality ingredients, Michael leads our kitchen brigade with precision, creativity, and heart.
Each month, Michael and his dedicated team craft a Seasonal Specials Menu, inspired by the freshest, locally-sourced produce. Every dish is a celebration of flavour and seasonality with a mix of home comforts and new food trends to delight both regulars and first-time guests.
Whether he’s slow-braising, flame-grilling, or hand-finishing a dessert with finesse, Michael brings a chef’s instinct to every plate.
Our kitchen team have crafted a June Specials Menu that celebrates the vibrant flavours of early summer. Showcasing the finest seasonal ingredients and a touch of Italian flair, this month's dishes are a true feast for the senses.
Let us start by introducing our Parma ham, Brie, and glazed fig bruschetta, which is a perfect blend of sweet and savoury, or indulge in the delicately rich crayfish mousse, served with toasted Italian bread and sea salt butter. For seafood lovers, the pan-fried scallops with pea purée, garden peas, and crispy pancetta offer a perfect harmony of freshness and depth.
Savour the comfort of our four-hour braised lamb shank, paired with chive mash, carrots, and a rich red wine gravy, or enjoy the Mediterranean warmth of pan-fried salmon atop silky tagliatelle pizzaiola. Lighter options include our beautifully fresh dressed crab salad, with egg, green beans, tenderstem broccoli and a honey mustard dressing, perfect for sunny days. And for something hearty and nostalgic, don’t miss our homemade pork and egg pie, wrapped in golden shortcrust pastry and served with baked beans.
Every dish is thoughtfully prepared to bring something new, seasonal, and satisfying to your table. Join us this June and taste what’s fresh at The Skiff Inn.
