On a beautiful October afternoon, what better way than to spend it in the wonderful setting of Highgate House. A superb Sunday Lunch - sublime Roast Chicken with all the trimmings and a proper home-made crumble. The standard of the food is just incredible and never fails to please. The staff as always welcome you with a smile and go out of their way to make your visit a memorable one. If you have not been before, you are missing out on a real treat.

What a fabulous afternoon tea. Our waitress Sarah could not have been more attentive to us, making sure we were happy with everything & keeping our tea pots filled with fresh tea constantly. The atmosphere was delightful & we felt completely happy & safe in the dining room. All the staff wore face masks, & were so friendly & helpful. My only complain was ........ the afternoon went soo quick. We were there to celebrate one of my friends belated birthday. The food was out of this world! The afternoon tea on the tier plates was beautifully arranged, all food was fresh & the cakes were amazing. I can not fault the visit at all. Many thanks to the chefs & all the staff, for the amazing hard work they all do. We will definitely be visiting again. It made a beautiful memory for us, doing this during a very difficult year we have all had. This was our first meeting up since early March. Keep up the excellent work. 👏👏👏👏👏. Thank you Stephanie 🙏

Attended for afternoon tea to celebrate a friend's birthday. Lovely selection of sandwiches cakes and scones. Lovely freshly brewed tea with plenty of refills. Advised beforehand that one guest is vegetarian and a separate plate of a variety of sandwiches was provided, which were thoroughly enjoyed. There was so much food that each guest was given a box to transport treats home. Staff were very friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Would definitely recommend and hope to go back again soon.

I cannot rate Highgate House highly enough for their Sunday lunch dining experience... every aspect is perfection! The roast dinner is to die for, the staff are simply lovely and even the odd ‘off menu’ request is never too much trouble! The COVID safety measures they have in place are also faultless. If I could spend every Sunday there I would... I highly recommend a visit to Highgate, you won’t be disappointed... 5 huge stars!!!
