Afternoon tea

Justin joins us from one of the Lake District’s top hotels, having started his career in Switzerland, he cut his culinary teeth under John Burton-Race at the two Michelin starred L’Ortolan restaurant in Berkshire and then worked up from commis to executing sous chef at The Lanesborough Hotel on London’s Hyde Park Corner. He lives locally with his family and is passionate about creating an authentic sense of place with his food

His philosophy is simple:

“Let’s look at more local farmers and producers and really see what amazing things we can find in the Eden Valley and surrounding area – the best quality food, cooked simply in the friendliest atmosphere”

It’s what we’ve always striven to do at Augill, only now it’s better

“Eating here is a social occasion” – Red Magazine

“No whispering over the consommé or hushed separate tables here” – Manchester Evening News

Sunday is pizza night just for residents – a selection of Cumbrian-infused Italian classics with thin crusts, big salads and a scrumptious dessert

Monday the restaurant is closed, giving you an opportunity to experience some of our local eateries

Every day we serve Afternoon tea – sweet or savoury, a sumptuous and very filling affair until 6pm with or without champagne!

Private Dining

We can host private dinner parties on any night of the week.  Enjoy the intimate Library for up to 10 people. Choose a bespoke menu that suits your style and be as formal or informal as you please designed around your particular preferences. You’ll get the use of our library just for you and dedicated staff to look after you.

• Exclusive hire of the Library for private dining for up to 10 people including a bespoke three course menu is £660

Afternoon Tea

The ultimate decadent celebration. A theatrical feast of finger sandwiches, freshly made cakes, scones with jam and clotted cream and lashings of tea, coffee or champagne. There’s a choice of two afternoon teas – The Westmorland is our traditional tea and The Cumberland appeals to those with a less sweet tooth with savoury delicacies replacing the cakes and pastries. Our afternoon teas are made to order and should be booked by 10am. Tea is served between 1pm and 5pm. £20 per person or £27 with a glass of fizz from The Great British Bar.

Cinema & Supper

Have a dinner party with an added twist with hire of our twelve seat art deco cinema. It’s the only cinema for more than 20 miles! Hire the cinema for £300 for up to 12 guests which includes a two course supper, glass of wine each, popcorn and the film of your choice – or you can bring your own.

The Great British Bar

An exciting and inspirational concept in bar keeping – a fiercely independent British bar showcasing the best of small British distillers, brewers and fermentors with everything from spirits to cider and beer to soft drinks and mixers sourced from independent, artisan British producers.

Of course there are a few guests because some things are just best made in other parts of the world.
