A Michelin-starred pub is celebrating its 10th anniversary with a menu of 'greatest hits' and a new IPA.
The Coach in Marlow, owned by chef Tom Kerridge, marks a decade of operation this December.
The pub will begin its celebrations on December 4 by bringing back some of its most popular dishes from the past ten years.
These 'greatest hits' will be a permanent addition to the menu throughout the birthday year, changing periodically to incorporate a variety of favourites.
Each dish will feature a bespoke 10th-anniversary logo.
The selected dishes include potted Cornish crab with smoked paprika butter and cucumber chutney (£16.50), deep-fried cod with tartare sauce and pease pudding (£20.50), crispy pig's head with devil on horseback and celeriac remoulade (£16.50), the Coach chicken kiev with cauliflower cheese (£29), and the Coach profiteroles with soured vanilla cream and dark chocolate sauce (£12.50).
Alongside these dishes, the Coach has also partnered with local brewery Rebellion Beer to create a special IPA named 'Decade' for the occasion.
A portion of the proceeds from this beer will be donated to a charity Meals from Marlow.
Head chef Sarah Hayward, who has been part of the Coach's journey since its inception, said: "The Coach has been my home for so many years and celebrating its 10th anniversary is incredibly special.
"This menu is a tribute to our loyal guests and the amazing team who make the Coach what it is today.
"I’m so excited to revisit some of our best dishes and share them with everyone."
Ms Hayward has risen through the ranks in the last decade, starting as a chef de partie and now serving as head chef.
Her dedication and skill have been recognised with several accolades, including the Michelin Young Chef of the Year 2023.
The Coach has held a Michelin star since 2018 and was recently ranked number 21 in the Top 50 Gastro Pubs 2024.
Mr Kerridge praised the achievement and said: "The Coach has always been about serving high-quality food in a relaxed and welcoming environment, and Sarah embodies that vision perfectly.
"I’m so proud of what the team has achieved and can’t wait to see how we continue to evolve in the years ahead."
The Coach's anniversary celebrations and the launch of their special menu and IPA are set to continue throughout 2024.
The pub's commitment to quality and community is reflected in their menu, their collaboration with Rebellion Beer, and their support for charity Meals from Marlow.
