The story
The Falcon Inn in Peterborough grounds its modern British cooking on a straightforward promise from owners Madison Keys and Zak Perrin. They centre their menus around locally sourced ingredients and environmentally conscious practices. This commitment earned the venue a 2 AA Rosette Award for Culinary Excellence. The kitchen treats sustainability as a daily operational habit rather than a talking point.
Tuesday through Saturday dinner service shifts toward regional harvests, letting the British kitchen follow the seasonal calendar. Weekend crowds often gather for the Sunday lunch set menu or the bar side’s signature burger. Sweet endings lean heavily on homemade pastries, particularly the chocolate brownie and their celebrated souffles. Staff also prepare a gluten free sticky toffee pudding alongside traditional scones served during afternoon tea.
The historic Fotheringhay hamlet provides a quiet backdrop for a space designed to handle everything from milestone dinners to casual evening drinks. The team prioritises a high level of service that remains equally comfortable for formal gatherings or quick snacks. Guests appreciate the straightforward welcome that matches the surrounding countryside. The venue keeps its focus on consistent hospitality rather than theatrical presentation.
