Eating at Blickling Estate

We offer a lovely menu in all three of our Blickling eateries. Throughout the year The Stables, Muddy Boots and The Farmyard Cafe serve delicious food for a quick snack or a tasty meal. For those who fancy a pub lunch, The Bucks Arms, is also on the estate (not National Trust), offering real ales and hearty food.

Our menu 

We regularly change our range of scrumptious chef's specials. Using fresh, locally sourced produce, our menu offers great variety. Find delicious warm meals in the main restaurant and an array of cakes, soups, sandwiches and snacks in our Muddy Boots and Courtyard cafés.

The Stables

You'll find plenty of choice at The Stables, from hot and cold dishes to soup, sandwiches and cakes.  We use local, seasonal produce wherever possible and have a continual supply of fruit and vegetables from the walled garden.  

Muddy Boots

You'll find wholesome, hearty snacks served all day, in a relaxing environment, and it's the ideal place to warm up after a blustery walk. Muddy Boots is next to the visitor welcome area in the main car park and you'll get a warm welcome from the team, whatever the weather.

The Farmyard Café

Perfect if you're in a hurry. Grab a snack or hot drink and continue with your visit. You'll find the café in our farmyard, by the bookshop, stamp shop and plant centre.

The Bucks Arms

You'll find this seventeenth century traditional pub and former coaching inn, on the walk down from the main car park to the house.  A pub and restaurant with rooms, it's the perfect place to start or end your day at Blickling Estate or plan for a romantic winter break.

Now you've sampled our produce in the cafe, why not take some home to enjoy and make a donation to help us continue the work we're doing.

Sow and Grow 

During school holidays join us with your little green monsters in the walled garden on weekdays from 10.30-12.30. Plant seeds in pots and take them home to watch them grow.

Hot, hot, hot

Our Cheyenne and Jalapeno peppers have done well in the walled garden this year, but they aren’t for the faint hearted...
