The Architect on Castle Hill has reopened its doors under new management in recent weeks, promising a unique new foodie offering plus craft beers, guest ales and an impressive new gin menu. Helming the pub are Luke Edwards and Stuart Tuck, who bring a wealth of experience in the trade, including running Hardwick’s popular Blue Lion.
The menu focuses on two pub grub classics: pie and mash and fish and chips, but there’s a twist! Just like the architect of the pub’s name, diners can design and build their own dishes, selecting their fish, batter style, sides and sauces so it’s exactly to their taste. Equally, you can create your dream pie, selecting fillings such as beef shin and mushroom in red wine, adding buttery or mustard mash and choosing a sauce – we’d go traditional and opt for the parsley liquor ourselves…
If you don’t fancy either of those, you can concoct a mix-and-match sharing board with treats such as scotch eggs, deep-fried brie and pork scratchings: what better way to make sure everybody’s happy?
