A great find to add to your
must try /must eat
list.
One kitchen, several ways to enjoy it. Explore the current TERRA Restaurant menu, our private tasting experience, afternoon tea, breakfast, private and celebration dining, children's choices and the TERRA wine list.
A relaxed lunch in TERRA, a tasting menu for a special evening, afternoon tea, breakfast after a night in the hotel, private dining for a celebration or something for our younger guests — the current menus are gathered here so you can have a proper browse before you arrive.
Our food follows the seasons and takes a lot of its character from Sussex. That means menus move, dishes come and go, and something you loved last time may have made way for the next good thing. Use the current menu links below for today's dishes, prices and dietary notes.

Take a look at Dining at Tottington Manor for TERRA Restaurant, the Tasting Room, Olive Lounge, afternoon tea and private dining — each with its own mood.
The current TERRA menu opens with a map of Sussex, dotted with the farms, fisheries, dairies, makers and vineyards we work with. It is one of our favourite pages because it tells the story before the first dish arrives: food from the county around us, cooked at the foot of the South Downs.
The Tasting Menu carries that idea into a longer evening, while our drinks list gives Sussex vineyards a proper place alongside wines from the rest of the world. Local does not mean narrow; it means starting with what is brilliant on our doorstep and staying curious beyond it.
Read more about Sussex food and local ingredients at TERRA, or wander through the vineyards on our Wine at TERRA page.
Alongside the menus are the moments we are proud of — awards, independent reviews and stories about the Sussex producers who help shape TERRA. Have a read while you decide what to order.
