Eating and drinking at Stowe

Our café is currently closed, however hot and cold drinks and light refreshments will be available to take away from the our new Potting Shed Café Kiosk, open everyday 10am-4pm. The information below will tell you more about the safety measures in place and what to expect when the café does reopen.

How it works

While the New Inn remains closed, you can find the café at the back of the New Inn, via the plant centre and next to the shop, on the way to and from the garden.

We've introduced new measures to help keep everybody safe. As you enter the Cafe, you'll find a one-way queueing system for placing and collecting orders. There are protective screens at the till and collection points, and hand sanitiser available. We can only accept card payments, contactless whenever possible.

The menu

We're serving hot and cold food and drinks, and light refreshments. You'll find freshly made sandwiches, sausage rolls, pasties on the menu as well as freshly baked cakes, confectionary and crisps to choose from. All of our food is currently available as takeaway only..

If you have dietary requirements you may prefer to come prepared, as with a limited offer we can't guarantee that we'd have what you need. We do have a small range of gluten and dairy-free food available, and soya or oat milk for hot drinks.

 

For families

Amongst our other drinks and snacks we’re offering children’s hot chocolate, Pom-Bear crisps, chocolate bars and cartons of fruit juice.

 

Days out with the dogs

Stowe is a great place to bring your four-legged friend for walkies and when you're finished the cafe is the perfect place to refresh yourselves. You'll find tie up points and water bowls for your dog to take a rest whilst you pop into the cafe to purchase your refreshments. We welcome assistance dogs only inside the cafe.

We bet it's been a big day for your dog on a visit to Stowe, relax in the cafe courtyard to recharge your batteries.
