Garden Café

We serve a modern European menu focusing on fresh, well-sourced ingredients and simple, well-executed dishes. Our concise menu changes daily, celebrating the very best seasonal produce, and our in-house pastry chefs prepare our signature focaccia bread, cakes, biscuits, and desserts fresh daily.

We source our ingredients responsibly from sustainable and organic suppliers including Swaledale Butchers, Fin & Flounder, Neal’s Yard, Sarah Green Organics and Cacklebean Eggs.

Whilst we don’t specialise in vegan cooking, we are always happy to adapt our vegetarian dishes. Please let us know when booking and we’ll make sure we have some options prepared, making best use of the seasonal ingredients available.

The café sits in a glass and bronze pavilion at the heart of the museum, a bright and minimal space in the leafy surroundings of the museum gardens. In the warmer months, we spill out into the Dan Pearson-designed courtyard garden and front terrace, so you can enjoy a meal among the flowers and foliage.
