![So bloggery! Interior of River Cottage Canteen Winchester](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj_tsoCUkaYDw_WaqskWkO6yL8iaxd1MvfI_xrzNYQYJn_N29tVOE8grdtsL9JXxjOj3yHxRFNr43RBfkmKGgHwx0fCn27zKZ-1SDxgM3Jw0IGnyArnVTB7cwFYLadiUnTnYLTn4M9EluM/s1600/River-Cottage-Canteen-Decor.jpg)
The decor is gorgeous with exposed wood everywhere and sheepskin strewn around (I couldn't resist giving one a little stroke. It was incredibly soft!)

Both Helen and I are big bread fans so we ended up getting two trays of bread for the table. It was the most delicious bread with a soft, fluffy texture and a sprinkle of sea salt on the crust. The best thing about the bread? It was free!

Luscombe Wild Elderflower Bubbly bottle](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgoOh_HX3LydY7dQ1PCshznJusxcAv-2bkKrIk2ZVDGrwwdc1tKE0SNG2y-tpQSl3RzT9PFYRvUdy0fMczvYRVb3QqHdO5wtoc-XDWNFub_dq11B_s3YaJc0yfAf_azzPn2nTVi8Z-Ei1U/s1600/Luscombe-Elderflower.jpg)
Whenever I go out to eat, I scan the drinks menu for elderflower. River Cottage Canteen had two options- still and sparkling. I plumped for Luscombe Elderflower Bubbly which is blended with Sicilian lemon juice. It was delicious!
You're getting two photos of the elderflower because... well... I might have got a bit too excited by the sight of my burger and dived right in without taking a photo! The beef was locally sourced (as were most of the dishes on the menu) and served in a brioche bun alongside lightly seasoned chips that were a little too soft.
I didn't know you're Winch alumni?! I'm just about to start my third year there. Will pop this on my list for a study break/ lunch between lectures.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos.

I've always wanted to visit a River Cottage canteen as I've watching the TV show for years, but I still haven't! There's one in my town so I don't really have an excuse for not visiting!
