Forte Kitchen is an independent restaurant and events venue in the heart of Winchester, run by Olly, Naomi and our brilliant team.

For over 10 years, Forte has been our passion, our home, and a place where people have come together to celebrate, connect and make memories.

Our brunch menu is built around simple, seasonal dishes, elevated with creativity and the very best Hampshire produce.

Set above the bustle of the high street, Forte has a character all of its own. A calm space where people can settle in, switch off and enjoy being looked after.

We believe great hospitality should feel effortless: polished but never formal. It should be warm, generous and fun.  

Over the years, thousands of people have gathered at Forte, helping us build a reputation as one of Winchester’s leading venues for relaxed, thoughtful and memorable hospitality.

Whether you're joining us for brunch, celebrating something special or bringing people together, Forte is always a good reason to gather.

We hope to see you soon,

Naomi & Olly
