“Running alongside customer favourites, and the pub’s acclaimed chargrilled steaks and crisp sourdough pizzas, diners can sample new dishes including Spiced roast duck breast with pickled watermelon; Chicken and red pesto rigatoni with Old Winchester mature cheddar; and Roast cod loin with spicy chorizo, king prawns and Padron peppers.”

Sunday roasts and meat-free options, including spiced carrot bhajis and curried cauliflower burger with a cucumber raita and mango chutney, are also set to feature on the new menu.

There will also be an “extensive” list of both wine and cocktails for customers to enjoy.

The next set of coronavirus restrictions are set to be lifted on Monday, April 12, when hospitality venues will be permitted to reopen outdoors, subject to social distancing guidelines.

Groups of up to six people or two households will be able to meet at such venues.

Should all go to plan with the Government’s “roadmap” out of lockdown, indoor hospitality will resume and hotels, B&Bs and hostels can reopen from Monday, May 17.

The Florentine also operates as a hotel, with 11 “boutique-style bedrooms,” and intends to welcome guests back from the same date in May.
