Restaurant

The brand new Restaurant is now open and aims to make the RHS’s flagship garden a restaurant destination in its own right and ensure all visitors enjoy the Taste of Wisley. The Restaurant is a true celebration of the seasons, with fresh garden produce, picked at its peak, featuring both on the menu and in the décor, which will also change with the seasons.

Whether entertaining friends over sharing platters, celebrating special occasion meals, Sunday roasts for the family or indulging in a classic afternoon tea, the Restaurant is a great place to sample and enjoy the very best produce from Wisley Garden and regional Britain.

Our opening menu features dishes such as lettuce, spinach, pea and mint soup with herb yoghurt, spring flower salad with chive oil, loin of Lydling Farm Angus beef with spring greens and parisienne potatoes, plus delicious preserves made from the 2012 harvest of Wisley’s heritage apple varieties. Our menu changes with the seasons and may include:

Weekday highlights

  • Rosary goats cheese, chargrilled spring onion, herb mustard
  • Confit duck and green bean salad, parsley, rhubarb dressing
  • Rhubarb and Champagne jelly, rose cream, orange biscuit
  • High Weald cheese plate Brighton blue, Tremains cheddar, Little Sussex

Fridays & Saturdays

  • Fish and chips: Icelandic cod in beer batter

Sunday Roast
