Your questions answered
Our Café & Garden
When is your café open?
Our café is open daily Monday to Friday, from 9.30am to 3.30pm (later on a Tuesday) during term time. The café also opens for our Saturday workshops and our Easter and Summer Holiday programmes.
Do I need to order a meal?
Many of our members do pre-order their meals or snacks but it is not a pre-requisite to eat in the café. For Saturday workshops, we may ask attendees to pre-order and a form will be circulated prior to the event.
Can I eat at the café without being a member?
Our cafe is one of the great benefits of being member here so you do need to be accompanied by a member or attending a course as part our Saturday workshops or our Easter and Summer Holiday programmes.
Can I bring a friend to eat at the café?
Yes. Friends, family members and guests are all welcome to join you in our café. Please sign them into our visitor’s book at reception.
Do I have to be attending a course to enjoy the café?
No. You do not need to be attending a course to come and enjoy the café.
How can I pay for my lunch?
You can pay by cash or card payment. There is a minimum charge of £1.00 for card payments.
Can I use the garden?
Yes. All members and their guests are welcome to enjoy our garden during opening hours.
