Garden Café at Hospitalfield
Our team are looking forward to welcoming you for brunch, lunch, tea, coffee or cake. Our menu changes weekly, featuring an abundance of fine local produce. You can expect bright and lively salads, delightful lunch options, and of course fabulous cakes served with the best coffee, locally roasted in Arbroath courtesy of Sacred Grounds.
The Garden Café is a new building located in a bright and sunny spot that commands a wonderful view of the gardens. The glazed construction sits adjacent to the Fernery and was designed especially for this place by architects Caruso St John. The light filled space opens out onto a terrace so that you can choose to sit inside or outside, at our café tables designed by artist Mick Peter and furniture makers ThreeFourFive, created in response to the historic collections at Hospitalfield. The Garden Café is dog friendly, please keep dogs on leads and choose a table outside on the terrace. The Café is fully licensed.
