Rosemoor’s menus are seasonal and sustainable, delicious and inspiring

Our ethos is to create dishes that shine the spotlight on the abundant, flavour-filled produce that comes straight from our fruit and vegetable gardens to our kitchen. When we can’t grow it ourselves, we seek out the best local food and drink producers and showcase their talents.&
