The Firepit, a modern culinary adventure centered around sharing plates. Our indulgent menu brings together the diverse flavors of world cuisine, blending the smokey, barbecue aromas of the American West with the delicately spiced tastes of the Far East.
Group Executive Chef, John Bingley and his team introduce this innovative concept to Canterbury, crafting ambitious dishes that excite the palate and showcase the best in global cooking. Our bold and indulgent sharing menu is a fusion of flavors that promises not to disappoint. Rooted in vibrant and relaxed inspiration, our approach carries an edgy and sophisticated spirit.
After extensive round the world travel, the Firepit team have sourced flavours, methods and dishes from every corner of the globe. John Bingley, Group Executive chef comments:
“The Firepit represents the zenith of my career to date, I am so pleased to be working under the direction of James Tory and Johnathan Callister the directors here at Cave. They have given me a remit to deliver the best fusion food from around the globe, bringing a unique concept to Canterbury. We have such a passion for food and we want to bring the joy and excitement to everyone.”
Our Firepit bar is seamlessly integrated with the first-floor restaurant, connected by a purposefully constructed glass bridge that enhances the overall guest experience.
Featuring an exceptionally sophisticated and thoughtfully curated selection of cocktails and premium spirits, guests are invited to recline, unwind, and savour the nuanced and globally inspired tastes offered.
