Bringing a picnic
Sunny days and bank holidays can be busy, however you’re always welcome to bring a picnic. We have a choice of two picnic spots- one is located near the car park whilst for adventurers one is on our River View walk with spectacular views over the River Deben. 

If you have an allergy or intolerance, please let us know

Food made here in our busy kitchen is made using a wide range of ingredients. Whilst we do our best, we can’t guarantee that any of our dishes are totally allergen free. We’d love to help you with your choice by telling you about our ingredients.

Dogs are welcome 
We know dogs are part of the family too. King’s River Café has a dog friendly zone so look out for the paw logo on the sugar pots to find a suitable table. 

Where our food comes from

Today the National Trust is the UK’s biggest farmer, looking after over 600,000 acres of farmland with our tenant farmers. Whether it’s for the Bensons juices in your glass or the butter you put on your scones, we require all our farmers to use nature friendly farming techniques. For things we can’t produce ourselves we apply these same regulations to all our suppliers too.

Something for everyone
We offer a selection of snacks for vegetarians and gluten and dairy free options, so there’s something for everyone.

If you have an allergy or intolerance, please let us know. Whilst we do our best, we can’t guarantee that any of our dishes are totally allergen free. We’d love to help you with your choice by telling you about our ingredients.

Remember your reusable cup
Every time you present a reusable cup when you order a hot drink at one of our cafés, tea rooms or kiosks*, we'll give you 25p off as a thank you for helping the environment by reducing the number of disposable cups used. This promotion replaces the hot drinks loyalty card scheme, which closed in February 2021.
*Discount not guaranteed at food outlets operated by third parties.

Doing our bit for the environment
At the National Trust we use Vegware packaging made from plants for our disposables, which means that our takeaway cups and lids are fully compostable.
