Crostata with berries 🍓

A traditional Italian open-faced pastry, this dessert changes with the season. Raspberries and a seasonal selection of berries, picked by Head Gardener Fran and her team in our neighbouring walled garden, are layered over a house-made tart, finished with edible flowers for a bright, summery finish.

15/07/2026

On the specials’ menu, from left to right:

Fire-grilled chicken liver bruschetta – chargrilled chicken liver on toasted bruschetta with pickled cherries and toasted almonds.

Octopus tricolore – three-hour steamed then chargrilled octopus, served alongside fire-grilled courgettes, red peppers, aubergine, and fresh walled-garden basil. As warming seas bring greater numbers of octopus to UK waters, this dish celebrates a responsibly sourced, abundant seasonal catch.

Sarde in Saor – traditional Venetian dish of sardines layered with softened shallots, raisins, and pine nuts, finished with a balanced vinegar dressing.

Mascarpone panna cotta with elderflower & strawberries 🍓

New on our dolce menu, created by our talented pastry chef, Cecily.

Reservations via the link.

10/06/2026

New on the cocktail list, our Capratini.

Goat’s cheese washed Ketel One vodka, dry vermouth, honey water, basil oil.

It really does make for the perfect aperitif - aromatic and creamy, with a subtle sweetness.

Celebrate English Wine Week with us 🍇

Just five minutes from Da Costa, next to the River Brue, lies our very own vineyard. At Durslade Vineyard, we grow a variety of grapes, which are pressed and bottled in Bagborough to create our Maid of Bruton wines.

The evening will start with a ride on our tractor and trailer up to the vineyard for a tour, followed by a 3-course dinner with English wine pairings (including our own!)

If you’re curious about English wines and how they come to life, be sure to join us for these special evenings.
