At other times of the day, it’s the perfect place to enjoy a coffee or an ice cream and savor the view. The time honored tradition of high tea is another exclusive highlight for our guests – be tempted by cream tea, sweet petit fours, finger sandwiches, and an inordinate selection of fine loose leaf teas.

You can even ask the River Café to pack a lunch for you to enjoy on shore. There’s also the perennial favorite, freshly prepared fish and chips.
