Riverford at the Duke of Cambridge, Britain’s Only 100% Organic Pub

Posted on 2014-12-12 by tikichris

The Duke of Cambridge – Britain’s first and only certified organic pub – has teamed up with Riverford (aka the organic veg box folks from Devon) to “champion seasonal produce” and offer Londoners an ethical and healthier option for quality pub grub.
