The Dining Experience at Chartwell Royalcliffe in London
At Chartwell Royalcliffe, our dining experience goes beyond savouring a carefully prepared, homestyle breakfast, lunch, or dinner, while appreciating the lively conversation of your tablemates. First, it’s about the quality of the food: we feature, wherever possible, seasonal and locally sourced produce, eggs, grains, cheese, fish, poultry and meats through our supplier. It’s also the way we prepare our dishes to achieve maximum taste and nutrition, offering residents’ favourites, as well as new choices to tempt your tastebuds.
On our diversified daily feature menus that change seasonally, so you might start dinner one night with lobster bisque or a spinach salad, followed by roast veal with mushroom and rosemary sauce, mini red potatoes, carrots, and grilled asparagus, topped off by sumptuous orange cream cake.
Or for lunch, try chicken with roasted vegetable soup, followed by a Niçoise salad plate with an olive baguette. You are welcome to enjoy wine with your meal too. You may also be tempted by our extensive à la carte menu, with its wide selection of popular dishes.
Your dining experience at Chartwell Royalcliffe is also about our dining room, both grand and warmly welcoming, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the garden. There is open seating, and you are welcome to bring guests—or to use our catering service to host family dinners in our elegantly furnished private dining room.
Service is just as important to us as the quality of our meals at Chartwell Royalcliffe.
