CASTLE HOUSE'S SET LUNCHES - TWO COURSE £18 THREE COURSE £22 including tea or coffee
At Castle House we have various food experiences - our Castle Restaurant overlooking the gardens and the old Hereford castle's moat,the more informal Ballingham Bar & Bistro and the garden terrace.
Whether you eat in the Restaurant from Head chef, Claire Nicholls', seasonally-changing menu, or have a light lunch in the Ballingham Bistro or al fresco on the terrace, you'll experience the skill and innovation of our kitchen team, and the best dining in Hereford.
Claire is a hugely talented chef and is passionate about sourcing her ingredients as close to the hotel as she can, working with a variety of committed producers, including our own Ballingham Farm, whose livelihood is based in Hereford and the Herefordshire Marches. Her menus are imaginative and brilliantly executed, and it's no wonder that the Castle Restaurant is one of the most popular in the county. Don't miss it!

What they say...
'The restaurant in the Castle House [is] first-rate...The main fillet of Herefordshire beef with mash, braised shin wrapped in leeks, horseradish jus and purple sprouting broccoli was perfectly cooked.'
The Times Cool Hotel Guide
'It will take another visit or two before I can pass judgement on Jesse Norman's claim that Hereford has great restaurants, plural; but that it has one at least is beyond doubt. Nicholls strikes me as a versatile, inventive chef who deserves greater recognition and respect.'
