Take shelter at the Alnwick Treehouse with new winter menu

Throw in some classics like prawn cocktail and smoked salmon with rye bread or thickly sliced homemade Durham bread with the hearty homemade soup and you’ve ticked all the boxes.

Classic dishes for the cold snap include lamb rump with roasted butternut squash, kale and pearl barley, cod fillet seared to perfection with caramelised balsamic onions, confit cherry tomatoes and creamy mashed potato, 28-day aged rib eye steak and Barnsley chop.

Delicious, colourful vegetarian dishes also await, with choices including roast harissa spiced cauliflower, a hearty Beets Burger with a pretzel bun, Asian slaw and thick cut chips, marinated smoked tofu with satay sauce and cauliflower rice.

This is what you can expect from the new winter menu from the world’s biggest Treehouse at The Alnwick Garden and the wizardry of chef Rhys Faulkner-Walford and his brigade.

Rhys said: “Our new winter menu offers something for everyone. I have enjoyed working with the regional selection of high quality meat, fish and vegetables.

“We look forward to welcoming you to the Treehouse, and of course we always welcome feedback from our diners.”

Searcys, which caters for The Gherkin and The Orangery at Blenheim Palace no less, is the official catering partner at The Alnwick Garden.

The Treehouse restaurant is open Monday to Saturday 12-3pm, Sunday 12-4pm, Wednesday to Saturday 6-8pm.
