Limetree Kitchen

Limetree Kitchen occupies 14 Station Street in Lewes, close to the railway station, serving small plates built around a nose-to-tail approach to meat. The menu names its suppliers directly, including Holmansbridge Farm and Plantation Pigs Farm, alongside Newhaven-landed fish from MCB Newhaven. Dishes are designed for sharing rather than served as fixed courses, and a separate Gin Kitchen list offers cocktails and craft beer alongside the food menu. The restaurant takes reservations directly by phone rather than through a third-party booking platform. Its stated focus on minimal wastage runs through sourcing choices as much as cooking technique, with as much of each animal used as possible. It reads as a small, independently run dining room rather than a bar that happens to serve food.
