About us
This is us – Andy & Sarah Williams with our son James. Andy has been Head Chef at Steamers since the restaurant first opened six years ago and we took the opportunity to buy the lease in October 2007.
Steamers gets its name from the building’s original use as the Steam Bakery in the village. The century-old building was converted into a restaurant by four local businessmen in 2003 and made fully accessible for wheelchair users.
We live in the flat above the restaurant and are very much part of community life here. James attends the village primary school, and we are all involved with various local groups and clubs as well as supporting village events and projects through the restaurant.
We display art work for sale and have a selection of local newspapers, magazines and village information for our customers to read. We hope we have created a friendly, relaxed feel in our restaurant to welcome everyone.
Environmental Actions
At Steamers reducing our impact on the environment is important to us. We try to locally source as many of our needs as possible. We have implemented energy and water-saving measures and we recycle the majority of our waste. This includes composting our food waste at the village allotments and running our car on biodiesel made from our waste vegetable oil.
Facilities for Families
Having a child ourselves, we want to provide a happy family dining experience at Steamers. We have a children's menu as well as high chairs, baby-changing facilities, books, toys, puzzles and drawing materials.
