Love is in the air… join us for our Valentine’s Day Dinner 2026
It’ll soon be the season of love! Treat the one you love with a romantic evening at The Pavilion. This fine dining experience will be filled with indulgence as we are serving a luxurious five-course Valentine’s Menu, paired with a bottle of house wine to share.
Dine on starters such as cured and torched chalk stream trout or roasted cauliflower velouté. Our decadent mains include côte de boeuf sharing steak and herb-crusted rack of Cornish lamb. Nothing says Valentine’s Day like a sweet treat to save room for dessert, such as dark chocolate ganache and vanilla & poached rhubarb mille-feuille.
