Dinner
Towards the end of a busy day exploring Brampton and the surrounding area, the time comes to appreciate the restaurants and pubs the town has in store. For a traditional and cosy evening, The Howard Arms is a welcoming pub with a range of appetising meals, seasonal menus and drinks. The pub allows dogs and includes a garden to relax in and enjoy during those glorious warm months. This is also a great location for history and literature lovers, as the great novelist and essayist Charles Dickens once stayed there.
Brampton is also home to the Braid restaurant and bar located in the golf club. Ideal for both golf enthusiasts and for those more interested in food, the restaurant and bar provides a range of menus, including a popular Sunday dinner to satisfy any diner’s wants and needs.
If you’re looking for a fine-dining experience, the The Cedar Tree restaurant, located in the traditional country house of Farlam Hall, is a renowned destination. Michelin starred chef Hrishikesh Desai has recently joined Farlam Hall as Chef Patron. Speaking recently to the Discover Brampton team, Hrishikesh highlights his plans for the restaurant when it re-opens in April 2023 – “Food is all about bringing people together to create great memories. The menus will have a very classical French base but then there will be a twist of my Indian heritage with a turn of Modern British & molecular gastronomy.”
This is just one route through the many opportunities in the area. If you’re exploring the incredible history and natural beauty of Brampton and the surrounding area, you need never be hungry on your visit!
