Knepp Wilding Kitchen

Food to heal the plant

Set in the heart of the UK’s pioneering rewilding project, Knepp Wilding Kitchen is a hub of community, nature and food. Our land-to-plate menu is shaped by the seasons and inspired by Knepp’s rewilding ethos.

Our Food

We celebrate the best of seasonal ingredients, from Wild Range meat grown on Knepp, organic produce from our on-site regenerative Market Garden and sustainable fish caught by day-boat on the British coast.

Our menu evolves with what’s available. Simple, unfussy food that lets good ingredients shine.

Join us for lunch seven days a week and book your table today.

“Hugely pleasurable surprise: we loved it. Charming staff… and located in a dramatic and sprawling rewilding project that’s worth the visit even if you’re not eating (hah as if).”

– Marina O’Loughlin

Dinner (Saturdays)

Dinner is served seasonally from 28th March through to Christmas in our candle-lit barn, with a log burner in winter and French doors opening to the starry courtyard in summer – a perfect setting for a special night out.

Sunday Roasts

Throughout winter, our Sunday roasts feature centrepieces from Knepp’s sustainable butchery and fresh, organic produce from our market garden. Served in our cozy barn, they offer a seasonal, hearty meal to enjoy with friends and family.
