Longleat has opened a brand new £1.5m restaurant and coffee house, able to cater for 420 people at once.
It’s called the Chameleon Tree, after a tree-like structure in the centre of the building, and will provide visitors with brand new menus in a contemporary setting.
The seating capacity is 40% higher than the previous maximum capacity.
Longleat Food & Beverage Manager, Paul Jackson, says the aim of the new area is to offer visitors wholesome, contemporary comfort food in a welcoming environment.
“The new design makes fantastic use of space and, even though we are able to cater for significantly more customers, the restaurant retains an open and airy feel which is great for visitors and staff alike,” said Paul.
“Our restaurant will offer a selection of freshly-made meals, including rotisserie chicken, slow-cooked meats, exotic tagines, classic favourites and healthy salads.
“There’ll be something to suit every taste and we’re proud to be able to offer many more vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and vegetarian options than ever before.”
Alongside the restaurant, The Chameleon Tree also has a brand new coffee house.
