A wide variety of culinary experiences
From the grandeur and opulence of an Epicurean menu in Samuel’s Restaurant by Executive Head Chef, Ruth Hansom; a relaxed lunch or supper in the contemporary Terrace Restaurant and Bar; a quintessential Afternoon Tea in the Drawing Room; a Chef’s Table in the Cookery School; private dining experiences; through to a hearty lunch or piece of cake at Swinton Bivouac Café…
