✨ Meet the Team: Alex 👨🍳 ✨
Chef, owner, boss!
When it comes to how long Alex has worked at The New Inn, his answer is simple: he never really started, he’s just always been here! As the man behind the menu, choosing a favourite dish isn’t always easy, but at the moment it’s the sticky toffee pudding. It’s a proper classic, and exactly the sort of dish Alex loves a familiar, comforting and made as well as it possibly can be.
If you’re struggling to decide what to order, Alex’s advice is usually to stop being so indecisive! He wrote the menu, so naturally he thinks it all tastes good!
His drink of choice is a Nebbiolo from Steep Hill Wines in Lincoln. It’s a brilliant red, works with a huge range of food and comes from one of the fantastic small local suppliers we’re really proud to work with.
Outside of the kitchen, most of his spare time is currently taken up with running and marathon training… although spare time is fairly hard to come by when you own a pub!
And the best part of The New Inn for Alex is the people. We’ve got an amazing team full of proper characters, and we’re incredibly lucky with our customers too. So many genuinely want to see us do well, support what we’re trying to build and have been behind us every step of the way. Thank you.
