Major New Canford Cliffs Restaurant Outlaw House Opening Soon

Acclaimed Chef Nathan Outlaw partners on Major New Canford Cliffs Restaurant Opening in September.

The eyesore of the boarded-up Loch Fyne restaurant on the corner of Haven Road and Canford Cliffs Road will soon be replaced by a smart new Outlaw House coastal brasserie.

Creating around 40 new jobs, Nathan Outlaw’s latest project is Outlaw House, opening in September on Canford Cliffs. The acclaimed seafood chef is collaborating on a major new hospitality venue opening at the former Loch Fyne restaurant and hotel.

Outlaw House will bring together a coastal brasserie, bar and boutique rooms at 47 Haven Road, while showcasing local produce. The seasonal menu will celebrate the coastline and countryside of Dorset and the South West, with dishes including Dorset crab scones with lemon and radish, cider-battered gurnard with warm tartare sauce and peas, roasted bass with chargrilled leeks and spiced butter sauce, and St Clement’s cheesecake with blackberries and citrus curd.

Created by Stellar Hospitality Group, the Outlaw House concept was founded by long term friends Salar Brock, Rob Hannaford and Thomas Edgcumbe. The food menu was developed in collaboration with Nathan Outlaw, one of Britain’s leading seafood chefs.

Executive Chef Fergus Coyle will lead the kitchen day to day, supported by the wider Outlaw House culinary team.

Nathan Outlaw said: “I’m really excited and proud to be involved in the launch of Outlaw House in Canford Cliffs. We’ve worked hard to create a brasserie focused on quality food, great hospitality and a relaxed atmosphere, with a real emphasis on the incredible produce and suppliers we have here in the South West.

The business is building direct relationships with fishermen, farmers, growers, cheesemakers, vineyards and artisan producers from across the region, giving guests a closer connection to where their food comes from.
