Read How A Hotel In St Helier Jersey Sources Local Produce For The Restaurant

July 10, 2014 - PRLog -- The benefits for choosing to eat organic produce have been documented over the last few years, indeed a poll published in June 2014 from the Organic Trade Association found a sharp decrease in people who say price limits their organic purchases. This is much the same for holidaymakers staying in a hotel where there is a large choice of locally sourced products. Price no longer is a factor when choosing to eat from a menu at any establishment.

The Hampshire Hotel in St. Helier, Jersey has a varied menu at affordable prices making healthy fresh food choices available to everyone who is visiting the local areas.


Non residents are welcome to order and take advantage of the gardens and sit by the swimming pool.

Everybody knows how hard it is to work in a hot kitchen, preparing delicious dishes from fresh ingredients to a tight schedule, and none more so than two key chefs with over 15 years experience at the famous Hampshire Hotel.

The resident Chef Joe Baugh demonstrated a passion for food from the young age of 15, having lived in Jersey his whole life he trained at Highlands College full time for 2 years before gaining experience and joining the Hampshire Hotel, serving under the Restaurant and Bar Manager Custodio Gomes.

Joe and Gomes form a tight partnership, where communication and cooking under pressure delivers a service that’s the envy of the Isle of Jersey, together being responsible for the preparation and planning for up to 70 people at one time, from breakfast to buffet, to the very popular set menu and A La Carte dishes.

Joe personally forges deep relationships with local suppliers on the Island and has a strict routine of not buying any produce until the production process has been overseen. This means everything from locally grown vegetable to hand reared rare breed pork, Joe gets involved at every stage to ensure quality and consistency in the end product. All of the Hampshire Hotel menus are written around the seasons and what the beautiful island has to offer at that specific time of year. This demonstrates the incredibly high standard of attention to detail before any ingredient is bought into the famous kitchen.

The Hampshire Hotel is experienced in providing catering for large parties as the hotel consistently offers a broad selection of function menus, ranging in price and selection for guests to choose from. Joe always take into consideration the guests’ needs, intolerances and allergies to provide the best function or event possible to best suit all guests and their needs.

The major enhancement to the Restaurant is the terrace, where guests enjoy the outside seating when the sun is shining, whilst being treated with free table service from the waiters. A wide selection of wines and drinks are available at all times, perfect when enjoying a freshly prepared buffet.

If you are a tourist visiting St. Helier, visit the Hampshire Hotel for refreshments to sustain you on your travelling experience around the beautiful island of Jersey.
