Restaurant Supervisor:
Circa is an innovative restaurant with a focus on showcasing its circular ethos - a menu that reflects the local area and keeps waste to a minimum. From fermentation to open-fire cooking, our kitchen prides itself on making the most of what we get from small, ethical suppliers (typically direct from grower/farmer). In the dining room, inventive cookery meets warm and welcoming service. Circa is a space to unwind - we guide our guests through our menus in a relaxed format. Whether walking in (or joining us for a celebration) expect to find beautiful low intervention wines, gorgeous cocktails and homemade vermouths, and a wonderfully curated soundtrack. As part of our drive to be more self-sufficient, we are currently developing our own HQ bordering the river dart, with a market garden (launched late spring '25), fermentation lab, mushroom grow-room and a poly-tunnel, due Autumn this year.
Circa is listed in the coveted Michelin guide, ranks 'very good' in The Good Food Guide, and has featured in Vogue, the Telegraph, and the Times. We are also fortunate to be back-to-back finalists in the Trencherman's guide '24 & '25. We look forward to building on this momentum in the coming years.
