EAT

We offer all day dining 364 days of the year*. We open daily from 11.00am for meals and remain open throughout the day until late. Bookings are always recommended.  You can book on-line using the TABLE RESERVATIONS button above or at the bottom of this page.

In keeping with our strong food focus our brief to our chefs is to produce all dishes from the base ingredients up. Stocks, soups, cakes and everything departing our kitchen should be prepared in-house ensuring you quality classic pub fare. Wherever possible, we seek the best possible ingredients from what the seasons or markets currently offer and source them locally if possible.

We offer a number of dining locations within the Hotel and it’s grounds. Depending on the occasion we will recommend an area when you book. For instance, throughout the summer months, our inviting gardens with bountiful roses are a beacon for many of our guests during the day. Our bar area is great for casual dining in the evening and mixing with the locals. Through the cooler nights expect to be met with a very warming open fire. If a more private setting is required we suggest our Snug area (formerly known as a “Ladies Lounge”) or the restaurant which seats up to 75 guests, if a private function is your requirement.

Our current menu is below. In addition to our standard fare we offer a number of daily specials ranging from a winter roast, summer salads, pasta of the day, soups, etc.

If you are contemplating a function at the hotel we suggest you contact us directly for a range of competitively priced menus designed for a range of budgets and tastes.
