How to book your Sunday roast
Take a break from exploring the Reserve to relax with a Sunday roast lunch, before heading back out to spot the endangered animals dotted around the Kent countryside. Or just pop in for lunch at the historic mansion set within 14 acres of landscaped gardens.
Served 12:30 - 7:30pm every Sunday, The Garden Room’s roast menu is available from £35pp for 2 courses and £42pp for 3 courses. A valid reserve admission ticket, Annual Pass or Short Break booking is also required.
Guests must arrive at the reserve before last admission at 4pm.
A £20 deposit is required at time of booking. The value of the deposit will be deducted from your final bill. Deposits are non-refundable or transferable.
Please contact the team on 01303 234101 or email us to add admission to the Reserve including our iconic truck safari, or an animal encounter to your reservation.

There was nothing on the menu that wasn't perfectly cooked, presented and served - and don't skip the puddings, as they are a highlight. We all need a bit of a treat right now and you don't get a much more special day out than a sumptuous meal with chandeliers overhead and the chance to see lions and tigers on your way back to the car.

A grand conservatory echoing the exotic style of both the mansion and the reserve itself, The Garden Room is a further extension of the illusion that guests are not in the home counties, but instead, a luxury resort in a distant foreign land.

Chandeliers, fizz and monkeys!
Took our teenage daughters for a birthday meal. Beautiful decor. Excellent and delicious food. Glass of bubbles. Attentive intelligent happy staff who were able to assist with gluten free ideas and options. Walked out to a starry sky and howling monkeys…magical and unique.

Faultless! Amazing food, service and cocktails
We had dinner here while staying overnight at the reserve, couldn’t fault the friendly chatty staff, amazing food and lovely atmosphere. Would definitely visit again, one small point would be not a huge choice and I did struggle to pick a dish but that’s not a negative maybe a special or two would be an added bonus? We also had some great cocktails.
