Since discovering Lorraine King* (a very talented local Chef) in September 2011, our “Gallery Kitchen Café” has become a prime destination by regularly an
d reliably offering delicious light lunches, fabulous cakes, and quality barista coffee, or Fair Trade and locally-made herbal teas. Lorraine is passionate about using the finest, seasonal, and locally-sourced ingredients where possible, while constantly developing an eclectic, international menu, to mix spicey global influences with reassuringly familiar British conventions and favourites, such as her ever-popular ketchup recipe. All our food is freshly prepared / cooked to order on the premises, and we always offer Gluten-Free and Dairy-Free options** alongside more traditional or exotic savoury dishes and desserts. The menu usually has something for everyone, although it is limited on Saturdays (booking is advised for parties of five or more all week). Whether visiting the Gallery Café for tea & cake, brunch, or a light lunch, all our customers can enjoy the stimulating yet calm atmosphere, with aromas of freshly-baked cakes, soups or sauces accompanying the frequently changing exhibitions of work by local artists.
* Our Chef Lorraine is Coeliac/Dairy/Lactose allergic and is fully committed to ‘Safe Eating Out & At Home’ principles at all times, and therefore has been highly motivated to initiate and deliver regular ‘Free From’ cookery classes here at the GKC, while additionally hosting a ‘Free From’ Support Group and Mentoring Programme, which is available to all (email Lorraine for more information). The Gallery Kitchen Café has also been entered for the 2017 FreeFrom Eating Out Awards.
