Designed to showcase authentic Italian cooking crafted by Italian chefs and prepared fresh in-house every day, this limited-time offer marks the beginning of an exciting new Italian culinary direction for the venue. The special launch pricing has been created to welcome guests to this new menu at exceptional value during its introductory period, before returning to standard pricing later in the year.

It’s an opportunity to enjoy high-quality, traditional Italian food in a relaxed gastro-pub setting, where attention to detail and honest cooking take centre stage. The Italian Set Lunch has been developed by Paolo, the Italian chef within the Eastham Ferry kitchen team, working closely alongside Head Chef Tom. While Tom oversees the kitchen as a whole, Paolo acts as the ambassador of the Italian menu, bringing the soul, flavours and traditions of Italian home cooking into every dish.
Together, they have created a menu that stays true to Italian culinary heritage while fitting seamlessly with Eastham Ferry’s gastro-pub identity and high standards. A defining feature of the Italian Set Lunch is that it changes every week, allowing guests to explore different regional Italian recipes while always retaining a strong, recognisable Italian heart.

At the heart of the Italian Set Lunch is a simple philosophy: doing things properly, every day. Pasta is made fresh in-house daily using traditional methods, never shortcuts. Sauces are cooked slowly so flavours develop naturally, and each dish is prepared with care, balance and respect for Italian tradition.
To complete the experience, all guests choosing the Italian Set Lunch are welcomed with warm, homemade focaccia, freshly baked in the Eastham Ferry kitchen and served to the table. It’s a small but meaningful gesture that reflects the generosity, warmth and comfort of Italian hospitality.
