Simon Rogan is one of the most innovative figures in contemporary British gastronomy. Since opening L’Enclume in the village of Cartmel, Cumbria, in 2002, he has transformed it into northern England’s first three-Michelin-star restaurant, achieving the third star in 2022. The restaurant also holds a Michelin Green Star, symbolizing Rogan’s commitment to sustainability, seasonality, and a farm-to-table philosophy. At the heart of this vision lies his own farm, where hyper-local produce is cultivated and brought directly into the menus.

Rogan’s restaurant group, Umbel Restaurants (Aulis London, Rogan & Co, Roganic Hong Kong, and Roganic Malta) has earned a total of nine Michelin stars and two Michelin Green Stars. Recognized as a pioneer of the modern farm-to-table movement, the group sets a benchmark for sustainable fine dining worldwide.

In 2024, Rogan was awarded an MBE by the British monarch and appointed Vice President of Bocuse d’Or UK. With a holistic approach that unites land, kitchen, and community, Simon Rogan has become a defining figure in today’s fine dining scene, embodying both sustainability and creativity.
