Ana Martins
Senior Sous Chef
I started working at The Acorn Inn as Commis Chef after finishing culinary arts school in Portugal. After a year I was promoted to Pastry Chef and most recently to Senior Sous Chef. I feel incredibly lucky to have found The Acorn Inn - a place that not only allows me to work alongside a passionate, driven team, but that supports me in developing my career. I am looking forward to helping lead the kitchen team and to continue showcasing Dorset's beautiful, seasonal, and organic produce.
