Eating at Greys Court

Once home to Sir Felix’s and Lady Brunner’s herd of prize winning Guernsey cows, the Cowshed is now a warm and cosy tea-room where you can enjoy a variety of food and drink during your visit. Why not take some time to treat yourself to a home-made cake, warming soup or delicious scone?

The Cowshed is open from 10am daily to 4.45pm, or dusk if earlier, and serves breakfast, elevenses, lunches made with fresh produce and cream teas. Home-made cakes are a go-to treat as well.

When possible, the chef uses fresh produce from the Kitchen Garden at Greys Court.

If you fancy re-creating something you have tried in our tearoom, we have a selection of recipes available for you to pick up. Ask at the till if you can’t find them!

Furry friends

The cowshed tearoom invites dogs to join their owners for lunch inside, and there is also outdoor seating available. We ask that dogs remain outside of the serving area. Water for dogs is available outside the tearoom.
