The Peeps at The Peep

The Bo Peep has a long and distinguished history - all of which can be found on the History page. The most recent history, however, reads as follows:

"Local Chelsfieldians", Graham Buckley and Kate Mansfield, purchased The Bo Peep in February 2006. Graham has his own business supplying fresh fish to restaurants and nursing homes in and around the South East including The Bo Peep - so fish is somewhat of a speciality for us.

Kate's CV is full of catering and hospitality experience. She started by doing an HND in Hotel & Catering Management at Cheltenham College. From college, Kate went on to become the assistant manager for a small 18 bedroom hotel in Buckinghamshire. From there she went onto become the Food & Beverage manager for Thistle Hotel. The three years following that saw Kate open and manage a brasserie in Buckinghamshire. She moved onto work for Woods and was responsible for corporate sales for Thames river cruises and lastly before coming to the Bo Peep, she worked for Hospitality Line, an events management company in Chislehurst.

Graham and Kate have a team of people supporting them:

Matt Lamb is our Head Chef.  He graduated from West Kent College in June 2007. He has experience in hospitality and catering at large scale events such as Henley Regatta (working with Albert Roux), Cheltenham and Goodwood Races.  Matt was previously at the Crown in Leaves Green but joined The Bo Peep in December of 2007 as our Sous Chef and his hard work proved his ambition was justified and he worked his way up to be our Head Chef.

The rest of the team is made up of friendly, local 'Peeps' and 'Peepesses'. Together we welcome you and yours for a day/night out, set in a little piece of history in the beautiful Kent countryside.
