The Café and Tea Garden at Rowallane Garden

The café is open to sit in or take away, serving a range of hot and cold drinks, some light snacks and sweet treats.

Our four-legged friends are welcome in the café and tea garden, but please be sure to keep on a short lead.

You'll find a variety of hot and cold food items including soup, sausage rolls and sanwiches. With sweet treats including cakes, traybakes and ice creams.

With ample seating both inside and out, it's the perfect spot for a mid-morning snack, lunch or an afternoon pick-me-up.

The profits from the cakes and coffees you buy on site get put straight back into conservation. Every cuppa helps us look after Rowallane Garden.

Our menu changes slightly depending on availability of produce and deliveries.
