You don't need a ticket to visit the Castle Cafe or shop. With spectacular views of the Castle Keep's east wall, our brand-new cafe is a unique place to meet and eat in the heart of the city.

Much of our menu is freshly made on-site using the best locally sourced ingredients. Choose from a range of options including scones and pastries, jacket potatoes, filled baguettes and sandwiches - not forgetting our famous Castle Quiche!

A range of hot and cold drinks, fine wines, local beers, and locally made ice-creams are also available.

We offer gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options. If you have any other dietary requirements, please speak to a member of our team.
