Come for the art. Stay for lunch. Return for dinner.Set within The Sherborne’s beautifully restored Grade I listed Georgian house, our restaurant serves generous, seasonal British food inspired by Dorset’s fields, gardens, hedgerows and coast.Head Chef Cory Benham brings together carefully sourced produce, vibrant vegetables, fresh seafood and beautifully cooked classics, from whole grilled lemon sole with new potatoes and grenobloise to roasted Bromham cauliflower with harissa yoghurt and pomegranate.Just moments from Sherborne Abbey, the restaurant offers an atmospheric yet unfussy setting, with historic Georgian rooms, contemporary art, beautiful gardens and Sir James Thornhill’s extraordinary staircase mural.Named by The Guardian as one of the 50 best museum cafés in the UK, The Sherborne combines creative and culinary experiences in one remarkable place. Entry to the house and galleries is free, with donations warmly welcomed.
