We don't do anything off-the-peg here. Food is one of our greatest passions so when you host an event here at the hotel we'll work with you to get your menus just so.
We are very flexible when it comes to food for your event. So you can choose to serve our seasonal menus, plump for a bespoke party menu, opt for vintage afternoon teas all round, or you may have some fun ideas of your own. In which case, our team of talented chefs can help you to perfect it.
In autumn 2018 we were proud to be awarded our second AA Rosette for dining.
