Hotels near Mudchute Kitchen

Next to the farmyard animals on Mudchute Farm you'll find this great, family-friendly restaurant. If you're here with your brood to explore the 32 acres of open park space, or you're taking a lesson at the nearby equestrian centre - you can see the stables from the Mudchute Kitchen restaurant - make time to drop in here for refuelling. They cleverly keep things simple with a rustic feel throughout - from the blackboard listing the day's dishes, with only four of five choices, to the wooden furniture. Come tea time you can wash down your butter laden scones (pulled out of the oven at 3pm) with tea, coffee or - very Famous Five and wonderfully thirst-quenching - lashings of ginger beer. Chef Philippa Davis has impressive experience in the kitchen as former sous chef of Moro, Exmouth Market, at the River Cafe as well as at Lidgate's the butchers. So you can be sure all the food is of a high standard - even the baked beans are home made. It's not just for the kids either, being on the Isle of Dogs, close to Canary Wharf, it's also gives office workers the chance to escape to the country in their lunch hour.
