Welcome to Field Food

Field Food offers a simple way to reconnect to the seasons, whether through our food or in our beautifully curated space in the South Downs.

We’ve always envisioned Field Food as a place to take a pause and refocus. Slowing down is all part of the experience. Everything we do is paired back, relaxed and unfussy, allowing space to connect with the people and natural world around us.

We create food that is designed to celebrate the best of each season with great quality, local ingredients that have been gathered, grown or sourced by us. We aim for flavours to be at their peak and for our menus to be harmonious with the time and place that you are eating.

Working with the seasons means that we are growing, foraging and preserving throughout the year; making our own ferments, pickles and preserves to stash away the best of the season, ready for the next one.

We endeavour to make Field Food’s legacy one of regeneration, seeking not to take more from an already troubled planet, but instead to give back to it through supporting organic, sustainable farming and being part of a local and circular economy, proudly working with small, passionate Sussex-based growers and businesses.

The Flint Barn

The Flint Barn can be found where the South Downs meet the Ouse, nestled amongst ancient woodland and acres of pasture, yet just a stone’s throw from Lewes and Brighton. A remnant of the areas farming past, it makes for a perfect, secluded hideaway.

A space that’s certainly off the beaten track, but close enough to get back to it at the end of the day.

Our Food

Our passion is for soul- and soil-enriching food – this means working with local producers who respect the environment, and using seasonal ingredients when they are abundant and the flavours are at their peak.

Whether you’re enjoying our catering at your party or celebration or hosting your party at our barn, all of our food is designed to celebrate the best of the season. 

“Well, WOW is all I can say! Your food was magnificent- everyone asked where it was from and said it was all delicious. And we have a few people who would describe themselves as ‘real foodies’! If we hold a similar event, we’ll definitely be coming back to you.”

~ Helen

“I wanted to write and thank you again – properly, in writing – for such an amazing dinner. I’ve had so many people raving about the food. And the whole vibe of your service. Throughout the whole process I have felt so listened to and cared for. “

~ Susannah

“We wanted to write and say such a HUGE HUGE thank you!! The food from the weekend was absolutely incredible. I had no doubt that it would be but it absolutely blew everyone away and was so full of flavour, looked great, was so well presented, just all the things. It was the perfect accompaniment to our day, (which went very well too), It stood alongside everything we were trying to do with the day and the ethos of the celebration and we can’t thank you enough for understanding and delivering on that.”

~ Nik and Heather

“Just wanted to write to say a huge huge thank you to you both and to the whole team! The food was just amazing, everyone was commenting how delicious it was, and also how beautiful it all looked, and ALSO how extremely lovely and how kind you all were! Thank you so much – you made our day so special and we are extremely grateful.”

~ Alice and Sahil
