Roe is a spacious modern British restaurant on Park Drive in Wood Wharf, created by the team behind Fallow and FOWL. Its high ceilinged dining room, open kitchen and waterside terrace accommodate everything from breakfast and lunch to large evening gatherings. The cooking follows a root to stem and nose to tail approach, finding creative uses for British produce while keeping flavour and generosity at the centre.
Snacks and small plates introduce the kitchen’s inventive style. Corn ribs come with crisp corn and kombu seasoning, while the signature blooming onion is paired with pickled onion and smoked leek mayonnaise. Flatbreads may carry mortadella with lemon and hazelnut pesto, octopus with cod’s roe, or seasonal cheese and vegetables, while mushroom parfait and beef with oyster tartare add richer choices.
Larger dishes range from aged beef with walnut harissa and red wine sauce to grilled market fish with seasonal accompaniments. Flamed mussels, lamb skewers and a baked potato layered with cheese sauce and shoestring fries show how familiar ingredients are given an unexpected treatment. Smoked cabbage, dressed greens, potatoes and salads make the vegetable side of the menu substantial rather than secondary.
Breakfast and weekend brunch broaden the offering with eggs, flatbreads, breakfast sandwiches and indulgent Royale dishes, while Sunday is built around a shared feast. Desserts change with the seasons and can include spiced fruit crumble, banana parfait and soft serve. Wine, cocktails, beer and alcohol free choices complete a restaurant designed for both a quick meal and a long social occasion.
