At DOM, we serve food with purpose,  food that tells the story of its origin and where we are proud to call home. Nestled in the heart of Scunthorpe, DOM is a neighbourhood restaurant built on craftsmanship, community, and bold, expressive flavours. Every dish is refined without ever losing its soul, shaped by our zero waste philosophy and our deep respect for the growers, makers and landscapes of Lincolnshire.

Our name, DOM, means ‘home’ in Polish, a nod to our chef patron Slawek’s roots and the philosophy that guides everything we create. Home is warmth. Home is welcome. Home is where food is made with intention. Step through our doors and you will feel it instantly: the buzz of our open kitchen and the sense that every ingredient has been chosen because it matters.

Whether you are joining us for a relaxed, comforting plate or indulging in a curated tasting menu crafted to showcase the very best of our region, DOM is a place to slow down, savour, explore, and always feel at home.

Each ingredient has a history, starting with the earth, the animals, and the people who raise them. Growing up in Poland, food was never wasted. My grandparents taught me to value everything on the table, from garden vegetables to animals raised with care. That mindset stayed with me.

Here in Lincolnshire, I’ve found the same respect for ingredients. The land gives us some of the finest produce, and I’ve built strong relationships with local farmers who share this ethos. When you see the work that goes into raising an animal, it feels wrong to use just one part.

Modern kitchens often focus on the prime cuts—the fillet, the loin—but to me, every part of the animal has value. Whether it’s the liver, bones for stock, or fat for rendering, it’s about appreciating what others may discard. This approach challenges me creatively: How do I elevate these ingredients to make them as desirable as the prime cuts?

Cooking is deeply personal. It’s about connecting with the land, the animals, and the people who grow our food. I feel a responsibility to honor their work, and that’s where my passion for sustainability comes in. If I don’t use every part, I waste not only the product but the effort behind it. Every meal is a celebration of life, sustainability, and the journey from farm to plate.
