Enjoy a break in our gallery restaurant and cafe

You feast your eyes during a visit to our gallery, but you can also satisfy your other senses too, with a visit to our restaurant and café. Great tasting food begins with great ingredients, and whenever we can, we source them locally, within season. We prepare everything from scratch on site every day too.

There are two spaces to choose from. You can choose light meals, snacks or cakes in our self service restaurant. Typical of our menu is the Bury black pudding brunch at £5.45 or or fish, roasted chips and mushy peas for £7.95. Some of our most popular meals are always on the menu, while there are regular changing specials. We also offer a special children’s menu in the restaurant too.

If you just want a sandwich or a coffee and some cake, you can also choose to sit in the smaller, more cosy, café area next door to the restaurant.

You are also welcome to use our free WiFi service in both dining spaces.
