The Restaurant

The team of chefs at the West Dean Gardens’ Restaurant pride themselves on creating innovative and constantly changing menus of good home-cooked meals, using locally-sourced ingredients including, when possible, produce from West Dean Gardens.

Pop in for winter warming soups, delicious homemade meals, cakes and pastries, ultimate scones with cream and jam, and drinks. On warmer days you can sit outside and enjoy the far-reaching views of the Parkland.

Lunches are served from 12noon until 2pm.

Please note entry to the Gardens shop, restaurant and car park is free of charge (except on garden event weekends where access is limited to event ticket holders only).
