Fancy a restaurant experience without leaving the house? Anniversary celebration or date night on the horizon? Why not order from new local business – Caraway & Rye – bringing the luxury of restaurant food direct to you. The “Restaurant Without Walls” delivery service launches on October 1st in the Ashford area.

Choose from a selection of inspired courses, from a succulent Stuffed Chicken Breast or a rib-eye Steak with their signature Dauphinoise Potatoes or Bourbon Glazed Root Vegetables followed by a mouth-watering Lemon & Prosecco Syllabub or autumnal Pumpkin Cheesecake. Every meal is bursting with flavour and made from the best quality, locally sourced ingredients.

Not only does the Restaurant without Walls from Caraway & Rye deliver quality meals straight to your door but the wine cellar is stocked with a great selection from Songbird Wines to accompany your meal. Try pairing the Stuffed Chicken breast with the 2018 Domaine Roblin, Terres Blanches Sancerre, or a bottle of 2019 Domaine de la Vielle Tour, Provence Rose.  

With contactless ordering and reservation bookings made directly on the Caraway & Rye website, delivery will be made to the Ashford and surrounding areas from Wednesday to Saturday. There has never been an easier way to order great food direct to you.

The ever-changing flavour-forward menu is heavily influenced by local producers and healthy choices, with Executive Head Chef Spencer Westcott's innovative twist on traditional classics. He comments “it's all about choice and experience.  With the finest ingredients from the likes of Albion Fine Foods and Seasons By Nature we are giving you the peace of mind that our suppliers and partners have all been carefully selected by us to ensure that their locality and ethics match ours”.

He continues, “Whilst Kent has one of the best food scenes in Britain, its home delivery options have been dominated by takeaways or big chain eateries, until now. There is nothing like this on offer. Our aim with the Restaurant without Walls is to deliver the finest quality food, made from local ingredients, straight to the customer's doorstep.”

What could be better than having your date night delights, handmade and hand-delivered in sustainable packaging, whilst knowing that the food you're about to enjoy is guaranteed to be of the highest quality and produced with the environment and the local economy in mind?

The range of refreshing vegan and vegetarian choices on the menu are to provide those who follow plant-based, flexitarian and meat-reducers with the sought-after restaurant experience in their own homes. There won't be a mushroom stroganoff in sight but you will find really innovative plant-based dishes like Acorn Roasted Squash stuffed with quinoa, cranberries and pumpkin seeds and a Baked Vegetables Au Gratin made with celeriac and butternut squash with cashew nut cheese, herb and smoked vegan cheddar.

To ensure that all food is prepared and delivered on time, advanced bookings are required.
