Owner's description
Classic dishes, fresh local ingredients, served simply.
Over a hundred and fifty years of local heritage, grand creativity and fascinating stories. Our dining room dates back to 1864. Whilst the surroundings have an inspiring grandeur and heritage our food and drink is simply an expression of the very best of the British seasons.
With doors leading out to the upper terrace, you are surrounded by the sights, scents and flavours of the delicious kitchen gardens & ancient woodlands.
1864 opened in June 2023, and is headed up by chefs Mark Langton & Rhys Baylis. We all have a passion for classic, fresh & local cuisine and along with the brigade owners Andy & Lindsey Lampard can be found foraging, gardening, prepping, cooking and serving.
From the moment you enter, HIGHFIELD is there to embrace you with a grand but homely warmth. Heritage designs and artistic details tell stories of provenance and history which are then carefully balanced with simple cotemporary styling. Nestled within 8 acres of grounds, gardens and woodland, the full experience of HIGHFIELD is to bring the beauty of the outside to your table.
The menu reflects our combined love of food. Keenly focused on East Yorkshire, locally grown, foraged and seasonally sourced produce is presented with a respect for creativity and balance.
