Ground Floor Kitchen Project Announcement and Changes to Dining Room Operations

Thursday 11th December 2025

We are pleased to announce that the Club’s Ground Floor Kitchen will soon undergo a much-anticipated and exciting refurbishment. This long-overdue improvement will modernise all kitchen equipment, greatly enhancing safety and working conditions for our team and ensuring the space serves the Club effectively for many years to come.

To facilitate these works, the Dining Room will be closed from Monday 5th to Sunday 18th January for lunch and dinner, and will be open for breakfast only until Sunday 11th January.

From Monday 12th January, breakfast will be served in the Cowdray Lounge. Lunch and dinner service will resume on Monday 19th January, with all meals -breakfast, lunch and dinner - effectively moving to the Cowdray Lounge until the refurbishment is completed by the end of April. Please note we will be operating a shorter lunch service from 1200hrs to 1330hrs and a shorter Afternoon Tea service from 1430hrs to 1600hrs.

Throughout this period, we remain fully committed to delivering the high standard of dining you expect, with a full menu available to Members. Afternoon tea will continue to be offered for those who pre-booked, and the Running Horse will also remain open throughout this time. We appreciate your support during this exciting phase of improvement.
