Festive Family Long Table Lunch

Bring the whole family together for a joyful Christmas Long Table Lunch at River Cottage. This festive feast is created from the freshest seasonal ingredients sourced from our kitchen garden, farm, and trusted local producers.

You will dine in our cosy farmhouse, twinkling with fairy lights and dressed in seasonal greenery, where our chefs will introduce each course and share the story behind every ingredient. From winter greens to slow-roasted festive favourites, each dish celebrates the very best of the season, following our SLOW ethos, Seasonal, Local, Organic and Wild.

Each menu is carefully created on the morning of the event to make the most of the freshest seasonal ingredients available, ensuring every dish is at its very best.

Planning a gathering of 10 or more? Ask about our private dining packages for special occasions.

Dietary accommodations we can make include those for vegan, vegetarian or pescatarian diets, those who are pregnant, and those with dairy, gluten, nut or shellfish allergies (we recommend you bring your epi pen).

ARRIVE

You’ll be met at the top of the hill and begin your River Cottage experience with a 10-15 minute walk through the wonderful pathways down to the farm, so you can enjoy the stunning views of the valley. A Land Rover lift is available in poor weather and for those with mobility issues.

WELCOME

Head to the courtyard where you'll be greeted by our team, then have a wander around our kitchen garden before taking your seats in our threshing barn for a 1:00 pm start. Our team will be serving further drinks from our bar from 12:30 pm onwards. Welcome drinks are served in our award-winning Cookery School if the weather is challenging.

CHEF'S INTRODUCTION

As you settle in, your chef will introduce the menu and tell you more about our philosophy, the food’s provenance and how the dishes have been prepared.

MAIN EVENT

You’ll be treated to three courses of fantastic local and seasonal produce, much of it produced on our farm, planned on the day to showcase the freshest and the best.

TO FINISH

At the end of service feel free to take a stroll back up the hill to walk off the indulgent supper or if you prefer, we can happily give you a ride in one of our farm Land Rovers.

DRINKS

We source our drinks as carefully as our food. After enjoying a welcome drink on us, our extensive drinks list will be available for you with orders taken from the table throughout the evening. This includes our own River Cottage range of organic Ciders, Beers and Kombuchas, and a carefully curated wine list of mostly organic and biodynamic wines. There’s always a seasonal cocktail or two on offer as well. If you want some direction from our team, we can help you pair drinks perfectly with the days’ menu. Do ask them when they come around to take your drinks orders.

    We all said how much we liked each course. It was a lot of food, but not too much. I liked the story that was woven from the local land, local suppliers and what was in season back to curation of menu.
