Eat
Our meat & drink
Enjoy ingredients grown on-site. Produce made in-house. Open-flame cooking. Tasty treats and daring drinks.
Given recent months, Robin Gill – who’s in charge of all our food and drink – has created numerous new ways for you to feast on food.
The Zebra Riding Club
The Zebra Riding Club is an indoor/outdoor restaurant led by nature, and the epitome of Birch.
In partnership with Robin Gill, and reflecting his philosophy, The Zebra Riding Club uses the farm, wood, and produce surrounding it throughout the year.
Anyone can book lunch or dinner here, whether you’re sleeping over, a member, or just visiting us to specifically eat at The Zebra Riding Club.
Open from dinner on Wednesday until lunch on Sunday (but never open for breakfast).
Bookings open a month in advance of a given day.
The Zebra Riding Club
Cooking is straightforward. Dishes are unfussy. And everything is put together for a reason.
See into the kitchen, speak with the chefs, and save room for dessert. If you’re all about good food and great music, The Zebra Riding Club is the place for you.
The Zebra Riding Club
“During my training I had the privilege of working in two restaurants that had land which drove the direction of the menu. Naturally they had a huge impact on me and the way I cook.
It has been a dream of mine to have a kitchen led by the surrounding terroir and finally that dream is a reality within the 55 beautiful acres of Birch (handle.silk.comet).”

Outdoor Eating
To make sure Birch is safe and social, we’ve gone big on garden feasts, laid-back picnics, and fizzing drinks trolleys.
There are BBQs run by us, or DIY ones ready for you.
Valeries
Valeries is our light and laid-back restaurant in the middle of the Mansion House. Head there midday-10pm for grilled goodies and sweet treats. Meat and fish are cooked on the grill. Pastas and salads are packed with flavour and fizz.
Looking for something a bit special? Hide out in The Gun Room for dinner – a private area that seats 6. You can book through our Experience Makers.
Our Bars
Sip water or wine at the Links Bar – where you can also grab a snack to eat wherever you wish. Or head outside for a drink under the stars in the garden.
Sadly the Frick Bar and Spitz Bar are a little too small for 2020 drinking so are both still in lockdown.
Interactive Bakery
Our Bakery produces fresh bread and pastries for the whole site.
Regular baking classes take place here, and you can eat the Bakery’s best bits for breakfast in Valeries or at the Store.
The Store
The Store offers speciality coffee and tea, sandwiches, salads, and pastries throughout the day. You can also buy Birch-made produce – from our charcuterie to our vegetables.
