 THE RESTAURANT

The Leaping Hare Vineyard Restaurant (Michelin and Good Food Guides)  and the winner of the East Anglian Daily Times Restaurant of the year 2007 serves distinctive seasonal food which perfectly complements the estate wines and wonderful surroundings. (Scroll down for a sample restaurant menu at the bottom of this page).

In January of 2008 The Leaping Hare was awarded a Michelin 'Bib Gourmand' and has retained this prestigious award in 2009 !

We source our food from local farmers, if possible. Lamb from Stowlangtoft, beef from Bardwell and venison, pheasant and pigeon from our own estate. Fruit, herbs and vegetables often come from our kitchen garden.

We have a carefully selected wine list that includes our own wines and guest wines chosen to complement our seasonal menu

The restaurant is open for lunch every day from 12am until 2pm and on Friday and Saturday evenings from 7pm until 9pm.
