A Winter Interlude — Sample Menu.
Our menu brings together classic flavours, winter warmth, and a little magic from The Sherborne kitchen.
Sample Menu — seasonal culinary delights served as they should be: fresh, local, and led by the moment. Dishes change daily to celebrate what’s at its best, with market-led specials shaped by the season. Gather, feast, and linger awhile.
We’re also delighted to offer light lunches in the Pavilion, featuring our comforting, freshly made croques.
