Castle View Restaurant
Delicious food, good friends, relaxed dining and
gorgeous views at Castle View Restaurant, Leeds
Castle.
Our aim is to cook the best traditional ingredients
as simply as possible and let the quality of the
produce and the magnificent views across the
castle’s moat speak for themselves.
Relax and enjoy a local ale or Kentish wine on the
outdoor terrace whilst admiring the magnificent
view of the 900 year old castle before dinner.
Our new seasonal menu uses the highest quality
local ingredients. We use the most succulent and
tender lamb from the Kent South Downs. Our
delicious warm artisan breads and locally grown
fresh vegetables are the perfect accompaniment to
your meal.
For dessert, Solley’s Kentish ice cream is delicious,
creamy and fresh from the farm, and don’t forget
to leave room to try our cheeses, produced locally
in Canterbury.
The oak-beamed 17th century setting offers diners
a relaxed atmosphere and spectacular views from
the terrace of the 900 year old Leeds Castle which is
beautifully lit at night.
