Open from 5pm, Wednesday-Saturday.
We serve an à la carte menu which changes frequently, based on the season and what we have preserved. Our menu is completely vegetarian.
We believe that we have a responsibility to run our restaurant in a way that is respectful of our environment. Our ingredients are sourced locally where possible, and we create as little waste as possible.
Scroll down to see our current menu.
Join us for dinner.
We welcome walk-ins wherever we can, but recommend booking a table to avoid missing out. The whole menu is available in the dining room and bar, and is easily personalised to suit most dietary preferences.
Forest is independently owned by chef Plabita Florence and restaurant manager/host Kate Underwood.
