About the restaurant

Under the stewardship of chef Brandan Eades, Tillingham has emerged as a beacon for those seeking a refined take on modern British cuisine. Set against the undisturbed landscape of Dew Farm in Peasmarsh, this Michelin Guide-mentioned destination stands out for its unadorned dedication to origin—the kind that feels almost palpable the moment a plate arrives. In Eades’ kitchen, the pacing of the seasons dictates each menu shift. Plates are formed in response to what the farm and surrounding countryside provide at their peak, resulting in compositions driven by clarity rather than flourish. Here, vegetables and herbs, often sourced within steps of the dining room, appear with a freshness that asserts their character: a carrot offering crisp sweetness, a herb contributing fragrant lift, each left to speak without distraction. The provenance of produce is never in doubt; the vegetables, fruits, and even grains seem to retain a trace of the Sussex air and soil from which they came. If there is an aesthetic at work, it is one of subtlety—a modern British restraint that balances comfort with gentle innovation. Dishes avoid overwrought embellishments, focusing instead on fine-tuned technique and a palpable respect for what the land yields. The color on the plate is natural and poised, each component occupying its space without fanfare, served in a manner that allows the purity of the ingredient to lead the conversation. The setting itself reinforces this ethos. The sense of place is more than backdrop; it resonates on the plate, in the bite of a freshly foraged green or the snap of an apple poised at the height of ripeness. Tillingham’s connection to its landscape is not performative but quietly intrinsic, an unbroken thread running from earth to table. What defines Tillingham is not spectacle, but a measured exactitude—every dish feels as though assembled with purpose and genuine restraint. For the discerning diner, the pleasure lies in tracing the arc from field to fork, tasting British seasonality rendered with intelligence and care. In East Sussex’s evolving culinary narrative, Tillingham continues to occupy a thoughtful, quietly authoritative place.
