The bar at the Retreat is the perfect place to meet for drinks. Whether it’s to enjoy a few pints whilst watching the sport (as we do have Sky Sports) or to meet for a cocktail with friends. We’ve created a speciality gin menu featuring 10 classics.
As you’d expect there’s a selection of wines available from around the world, hand-selected to offer something for the every day choice to wines suitable for more special occasions.
There’s also some bottled craft beers on offer, as well as a cocktail list. We highly recommend the house special Espresso Martini. Perfect to round off a meal.
The Retreat is the perfect place to relax and have a bite to eat. Whether you want a quick bar snack, a tasty lunch or a three course evening meal, we have menus to suit all sizes of hunger.
Check out our duel fuelled wood-fired oven in our dining area, where you can watch your freshly made pizza cook. We also use it to cook our sea trout, chicken and range of burgers too, as well as other things. Using a wood-fired oven boosts the flavour, as it imparts a smoky taste whilst distributing the heat evenly. It’s also a quicker way to cook too and ensures the food retains more of its nutrients.
Our steaks come from Tom Hixson in Smithfield Market. It’s 100 day aged Australian grass and grain fed beef. We’ve chosen it because it has a rich and succulent flavour and all steaks are cooked to your liking and include a sauce of your choice too.
We have a range of burgers to tempt all taste buds. The Wagyu burger comes highly recommended. We use Australian Chuck Eye which is minced and formed into a 7oz burger. It’s marbled with fat and has a fantastic flavour. Wagyu cattle are well-bred, well-fed and very tasty.
Food is available all day, though some menus on offer are only available at certain times of the day. Get in touch if you’d like to find out more about our menus.

Really friendly welcoming staff. I popped in for a catch up with friends. They serve lovely coffee and we were never made to feel uncomfortable just sitting drinking coffees for an hour. We will go back for a meal soon. Thank you
We were served by Emma, Daisy and Bekah last Sunday. My party of 4 all opted for the Roast and we can honestly say that it was wonderful. The staff were very attentive without being intrusive and were very friendly. Thank you The Retreat for a wonderful meal and great service!
11/12/23 I felt the need to review this again as they apparently have a new chef. The whole line up is new. Service was excellent- didn’t get his name- ponytail Northern Irish guy. He was amazing. Food- here is where it was not as good before. Huge Sunday roast but it lacks taste. We ordered 2 roast lamb, 1 roast chicken and 1 salmon fish cakes. The roasts were huge. However my fish cakes were the size of a gold ball. So 2 golf ball size fish cakes, chips and salad for £15 is a bit dear as half a roast chicken is £16. Most importantly…. The food was nothing to shout about. It’s ok - it doesn’t stand out. I would come again though because it’s convenient. So… I’d say - give it a go if you’re in the area - don’t seek it out. If you travel to this area, seek out the Three Horseshoes in Laleham instead. It’s only 2-min drive away. September/October I’ve been here many time in the last 15 years and have seen it changed hands a few times. The food has been consistently good so cannot fault it for that. I’ve taken my son there after school at least 2-3 times a month over the school years and he’s now a grown man! We’ve had meals there, drinks… always good. I hope it operates for many years to come. As long as the food, service and ambience are good - it should do well whoever the management is. So, with the latest new management and new menu- the dish I can recommend is the red snapper risotto! So so good. Looking forward to try the others soon.
Only giving 4 stars because the food wasn’t the best and really it was below average and over priced. The Service from Jack was excellent and really made up for the quality of the food. He was the only person to come to our table and ask if everything was ok , because of this we decided to stay and order more drinks! Lack of atmosphere but he was extremely attentive , made an effort with us as customers and really made a difference to our experience.
Just had an amazing experience at The Retreat and the food was amazing. We had sharers/ starters and it came in good time and tasted so good. I will say a special thank you to Alex and Jack that made the experience even better! They are a brilliant duo and had us in stitches, an absolute credit to the place! Thanks guys :)
