The Lord Warden's Tea Room
Strolling the gardens at Walmer can help you work up quite an appetite. Luckily, our tea room offers hot lunches, sandwiches, snacks and cakes to get you ready for more exploring.
Benefitting from the produce of the Kitchen Garden, our caterers freshly prepare seasonal dishes to liven up our menu, ensuring we always have something new and exciting for you to try. Growing our own produce provides fresher ingredients and a positive environmental impact through reduced food miles.
On select weekends, join us for Sunday lunch at the Lord Warden's Tea Room. We serve a traditional roast alongside vegetarian/vegan options. Booking is not essential, but can be made by calling the castle during our opening hours on 01304 364288. Normal site admission applies.
The Glasshouse Café
Built as part of the Rediscovering Walmer's Pleasure Grounds project, the Glasshouse Café allows visitors to enjoy refreshments in the beautiful setting of the Kitchen Garden.
Relax and sample a selection of sandwiches, snacks and afternoon teas, and enjoy the opportunity to watch our gardeners tend produce that can be seen growing just metres away.

Growing vegetables on a three-year rotation, with a new design each year, means there is always something new to admire at the Kitchen Garden. Unusual vegetables and plant combinations offer unique ornamental value, with the added benefit of a fresh and regularly changing seasonal menu for the castle tea room and Glasshouse Café.
