<span class='postTabs_titles'><b>About</b></span></p>
<p>Here at The Cultured Bean we aim to serve the best quality food and drink in a relaxed, sophisticated atmosphere. We have included a wide range of local produce and yet the majority of our food is made on the premises, from our delicious soups and salad dressings to our own award winning bitter chocolate torte.</p>
<p>We have won several ‘foodie’ accolades over the years from professional food critics and our own customers, awards much cherished! </p>
<p>We have recently recruited some new ‘girls’ – our flock of hardworking free-ranging hens lay the eggs for our menu.  (Edith is a particular show off, as she likes to produce &#8216;double yokers&#8217;. Watch out for one on your plate)!  </p>
<p>As we are committed to helping the local environment, the waste coffee grounds, vegetable peelings and egg shells go onto our compost heap to help grow the seasonal fruit and vegetables provided for our menu. </p>
<p>By popular demand our Chocolate Tortes and Ma Bean’s puddings are available for you to take home and enjoy, along with our ‘All Dressed Up’ range of salad dressings. </p>
