Dinner is served Friday and Saturdays only and must be pre booked with at least a weeks notice. All dishes are by default gluten free and vegetarian but each dish can be vegan, so don’t be put off by meringue, cream or egg dishes… we can make it vegan for you.
We asked you, our guests, what you would like to find on a Dinner menu, then listened carefully to literally hundreds of suggestions.
You asked for familiar comforting dishes, many traditional and most bringing back memories of a time when “Free From” was unheard of.
We also took note of what you didn’t want, so you wont find fruit salad on the menu… and sorbet is simply a refresher in between courses… but if you would like a simple fruit platter, you only have to ask…
We have four set menus which change seasonally at a cost of £35.00 per person. The first guests to book can select a menu and that is what will be served that evening. Additional guests booking will be offered that menu only. We ask that you let us know on booking if you prefer vegan or vegetarian and if you suffer from any allergies.
Dinner is a 5 course meal including coffee and hand made chocolates / mints, and is served at 7.00pm. We are no longer licensed so you are welcome to bring your own alcohol.
