Gloucester Food Dock Welcomes It’s Twelfth Independent Eatery – Roots + Seeds Café and Kitchen

Officially opening their doors on the 8^th of April, Gloucester Food Dock is excited to announce the arrival of Made in Gloucestershire member Roots + Seeds, the latest independent eatery to join their thriving food destination. After establishing a successful restaurant in Cirencester, co-owners and school friends Toby and Sam are thrilled to be opening their second café in Gloucester and bring their selection of field-to-fork breakfast, brunch and lunch options to the Docks.

“We are both so excited to bring our local and seasonal menu to Gloucester and share dishes that highlight some of the amazing producers of Gloucestershire. We’re really looking forward to joining a fantastic food community of like-minded businesses here at the Food Dock.”

The opening of Roots + Seeds brings a fresh lunch selection to the Food Dock, from light bites and ‘grab and go’ takeaway options made to order in the Kitchen, to hearty mains.

On the brasserie-style lunch menu, visitors will find dishes such as Beer Battered Fish and Chips, the Roots + Seeds Cheeseburger with Skin on Fries, and their famous Sticky Toffee Pudding. But also, a regularly changing Specials Board with dishes dictated by the seasons. This Spring, customers can enjoy Lamb Braised Shoulder and Wild Garlic Gnocchi. With a selection of ingredients sourced from suppliers within a 25-mile radius and their own Kitchen Garden, Roots + Seeds café is a celebration of local produce and fresh ingredients.

Ken Elliott, co-owner of Gloucester Food Dock said, “With this opening, all of the Deck and Quayside spaces are now occupied. Roots + Seeds bring another dimension to the cuisine of the Food Dock along with bags of personality. Their passion and creativity will be a great addition to our growing community. The indoor space is light and airy and a great place to meet for a coffee, brunch or lunch, with outside seating also available in time for the warm weather”.
