We’re really excited to have teamed up with SO41 Catering for this year’s Bream on the Green pop-up restaurant. Launched in 2019 by head chef Matt Doe and his wife Lisa, what started with delicious street food has grown into an artisan bakery, high-end event catering, supper clubs and beautifully crafted dishes for order via the SO41 Signature range.

Chefs Matt, ‘Mini’ and Scott have been gracing some of the New Forest’s best eateries over the last decade. Sourcing local ingredients from the best local suppliers, then putting their expert twist the team have created a menu that simply rocks for this year’s festival.

SO41 Catering is all about the community, hence the name as a postcode! From training up budding young chefs, to holding the most responsible values and ethos when it comes to producing their food sustainability.

We think Matt & co will be the next big thing to emerge on the New Forest food scene and we’re delighted to give them a stage to deliver something special. We hope you will support these locals too.

PLEASE NOTE YOU ALSO NEED TO BOOK A TICKET TO THE EVENT. WE CAN ONLY TAKE BREAM ON THE GREEN BOOKINGS FOR SAT AND SUN IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A TICKET AS THOSE SESSIONS ARE NOW SOLD OUT. WE STILL HAVE FULL AVAILABILITY FOR FRIDAY

What’s The Deal With Booking A Table?

If you prefer relaxing in a different dining experience with first class service, great food and lip-smacking wines, then why not book a table and celebrate with friends?
Bookings have set times across the weekend. This is to manage table numbers for our 120 cover restaurant.
As we’re outside, tables seat up to 8 persons. Ideally with a minimum table of 4, maximum of 8 persons across the following timeslots below. If you prefer to dine as a table of 2, please get in touch with us at [email protected] and we’ll do our best to help.
To help the SO41 team and secure your booking a deposit of £5 per person is required. This will be deducted off your final bill.
To ensure as many people as possible can enjoy the Bream of the Green experience and of course leave time for the live music, street performers and a couple more drinks, each booking is limited to 1hr 30mins.
