Art Lovers Cafe

Socialise in style

Enjoying breakfast or lunch with family or friends, marking a special occasion, nurturing a business partnership or dissecting our latest exhibition, the Art Lover’s Café is open between 10am and 5pm daily offering the ultimate contemporary social space.

Surrounded by changing art displays, this unique setting offers a seasonal selection of tempting light bites, lunches, brunches, afternoon tea, coffee and cakes. Enjoy sandwiches, salads, home baking and hot favourites with the freshest ingredients sourced from handpicked local suppliers whenever possible.

In warmer months we open the doors to our extensive terrace allowing you to enjoy the same exceptional service while experiencing breathtaking views of the gardens and parkland beyond.

Gesso Room

Seating up to 40, our newly refurbished Gesso Room offers a touch of exclusivity or privacy to your event. This smaller space is ideal for a family gathering, product launch, art exhibition or intimate dinner party. We love to make it personal, so feel free to challenge us with your choice of theme including lighting and music. The Gesso Room can also be used as an extension to any event held in the Art Lover’s Café.
