Best Seasonal British Dishes to Try in Kew This Autumn/Winter

As the days grow shorter and the air turns crisp, autumn and winter bring with them some of the most comforting and delicious flavours of the year. In Kew, traditional British seasonal dishes are at their very best — hearty, warming, and full of flavour. Whether you’re dining out or cooking at home, here are some of the best dishes to enjoy this season.

Hearty Roast Dinners

Nothing says autumn and winter like a traditional Sunday roast. Complete with roast potatoes, seasonal vegetables, Yorkshire puddings, and rich gravy, it’s the perfect way to warm up after a walk through Kew Gardens or along the Thames.

At The Greyhound Kew, our roast dinners are a local favourite, served with all the trimmings and best enjoyed with a pint of local ale or a glass of red wine.

Seasonal Game Dishes

Autumn is game season in Britain, making it the perfect time to enjoy dishes such as venison, pheasant, or partridge. These meats are rich and flavourful, pairing beautifully with root vegetables, red wine sauces, and seasonal herbs.

Comforting Pies & Stews

As the weather cools, pies and stews become the ultimate comfort food. Think steak and ale pie with buttery mash, chicken and leek pie with flaky pastry, or slow-cooked beef stew. These classics are staples of British cuisine and a must-try when dining in Kew during the colder months.

Seasonal Vegetables

Root vegetables like parsnips, carrots, and swede come into their own in autumn and winter. Whether roasted, mashed, or blended into soups, they add depth and warmth to any dish. Pumpkins and squash also take centre stage, adding colour and a hint of sweetness to seasonal menus.

Warming Desserts

Autumn and winter are also the perfect time to indulge in traditional puddings. Sticky toffee pudding, apple crumble, and bread & butter pudding are just a few of the comforting classics you’ll find on menus in Kew. Pair with custard or clotted cream for the ultimate treat.
