AO By Daniel Rogan

A month of early mornings, packed services, and produce that has genuinely stopped us in our tracks. Summer is doing its thing and so are we.

The seasonal menu is here and it is all about the best of British right now, with ingredients from the fields of Simon Rogan MBE Our Farm by Simon Rogan in Cartmel sitting alongside the finest local produce Southampton has to offer. It has been a joy to cook.

August is also now open for bookings, with a special opening on bank holiday Sunday 30th.

Pair your visit with a stay at the White Star Tavern using code AOBB20 for 20% off and a welcome drink waiting for you.

This is what summer is for.

Behind every beautiful plate is a person who never switches off.

Daniel is constantly pushing, constantly creating and constantly raising the bar for everyone around him. Tonight, that hard work gets the recognition it deserves as Daniel is a finalist for Restaurant Chef of the Year at the Craft Guild of Chefs 2026 Awards.

We see the sacrifice, we see the passion, and we are so incredibly proud to be part of his team. Go get it, Daniel. 💛🔥

Something exciting is happening at AO ✨

Following the sold-out success of Rogan x Rogan week, we’ve been busy. New interiors. New menus. A whole new energy.

We’re proud to introduce a range of more accessible dining experiences, starting with our new £39 lunch menu launching this Thursday. Ingredient-led cooking, the finest Hampshire produce, and a restaurant that feels better than ever.

Step inside and you’ll find a warmer, more theatrical space, including an open view straight into our upstairs kitchen. Because great food deserves to be seen.

July reservations are now open. We can’t wait to welcome you this summer.
