Having opened its doors in 1988 the Bay Tree Melbourne has an enviable reputation for offering ‘new world cuisine at its best’. Co-proprietors Vicki Talbot and head chef Rex Howell have been committed to delivering sumptuous food time and again using the very best of Derbyshire and surrounding area produce and fusing world cuisine and influences in many of their dishes. A very popular champagne breakfast makes for a fabulous start today and is available Tuesday to Friday and promises to be elegant in presentation as well as hearty for those looking to set themselves up for a meander through the local countryside. Many diners are welcomed by the team who have visited Donnington Park and with such acclaimed cuisine The Bay Tree is a perfect place to enjoy a race win.

The evenings at Bay Tree promise to delight as diners are sat within beautiful surroundings blending modern fixtures and fittings with the table presentation of a typically fine-dining restaurant. Starters include Irish oysters in tempura batter with an ‘ice shot’ of Avruga Caviar and crème fraiche or for diners looking for something a little more familiar ‘Posh ploughmans’ promises to make an excellent entree. The pick of mains include a rack of English lamb with herb crust and a the mouth-watering Griddled fillet of prime English beef ‘paillard’ on a rosti potato with a red pepper confit and pan-fried foie gras.
