The Warren, an independent contemporary British restaurant on the High Street, has been trading for over seven years and puts a lot of its success down to collaborations with other local businesses. Sourcing much of its poultry from its own land on the Warren Estate in Crowborough, and foraging to provide its farm-to-table meals, it also collaborates with local suppliers for other produce.

Sustainability is also a big factor in who they choose to work with. The enthusiasm of Manager, Magdalena, is infectious as she explains that they are not a stuffy old-fashioned restaurant, rather that they offer a range of options; from white linen tables in The Orangery for special occasions to their reasonably priced lunch and dinner set menus, and their beautiful Summer Terrace.
