Where to eat and drink at Anglesey Abbey

Buying refreshments on site

You’ll find hot and cold drinks, snacks and light meals at Redwoods Restaurant and our brand new grab-and-go Garden Office Café, located by the house. The Garden Office Café will be open daily from 10:30am, available for takeaway hot and cold drinks, snacks and cakes. Please note, the seating area for the new café is outdoors in the courtyard.

Bringing a picnic

Weekends and holidays can often be busy, but you're welcome to bring a picnic which can be enjoyed anywhere in the garden, except in formal areas. We have deck chairs out in the Pinetum and plenty of benches around the site. Head to South Lawn for a picnic with a view!

Eating with little ones

If you're visiting with children, why not pick up a kids' lunchbox, which comes with sandwiches, snacks, fruit and a drink? We serve babyccinos, too, for when your little explorers need warming up.

Special offers

If you buy a drink using your own reusable cup, we'll give you 25p off as a thank you for helping the environment.

And as part of the Good Journey initiative, we are offering a free regular hot drink to visitors who arrive at Anglesey Abbey with a valid train ticket, bus ticket or a bike helmet. Find out more plus T&Cs here.

Allergen information

Most of the food and drink served is prepared on site in our kitchen, using a wide range of ingredients. As a result, we can’t guarantee that any of our food and drink products are completely allergen free.

If you have an allergy or intolerance and would like ingredient information about the food and drink served, please ask the staff, who will be happy to help.

Always check when you visit

Visited before? We sometimes change our recipes to improve quality and flavour, including the ingredients. When you visit, please speak to one of our team to check the current allergen information for your favourite dish.

Thank you

Every cuppa or tasty treat you buy helps us to continue looking after places for everyone to enjoy.
