The Weekday Kitchen
Our weekday lunch at The Farmhouse at Redcoats offers seasonal, farm-to-fork cooking at exceptional value, in a stunning Hertfordshire countryside location.
At The Farmhouse, lunch is about seasonal British cooking done properly. Many of our ingredients come from trusted local farmers and producers, alongside herbs, vegetables and produce grown on site where possible.
Available Monday to Friday, 12–2.30pm. Booking is recommended, but if you’re passing, feel free to pop by… we’ll always do our best to find you a table.
Healthy, fresh and delicious lunches
Seasonal, Farm-to Fork Cooking
This is lunch for when time matters, but good food still does too.
Our lunch menu is ideal for business catch-ups, client meetings, team lunches or solo midweek treats. You can be in and out efficiently, or linger a little longer if the diary allows. Either way, you’ll eat well.

A Beautiful Countryside Setting
Set just a five-minute drive from Hitchin town centre, The Farmhouse at Redcoats offers the ease of countryside dining without feeling out of the way. There’s free on-site parking, and the choice to dine in our light-filled Orangery restaurant, or outside in the gardens when the weather allows.
And if you do have a little longer to linger, the bar is always open. Stay for a cocktail, a glass of wine, or let the afternoon drift by at its own pace.
