Experience culinary excellence at Middle & Over, our esteemed fine-dining restaurant, where chef Steve Groves leads with a beautifully crafted new menu for our 2024 festival.
Chef Groves has been with Glyndebourne since 2021 and has a culinary journey spanning renowned establishments like Roux Parliament Square, Launceston Place, and The Inn at Perry Cabin.
Named National Chef of the Year in 2019 and a memorable contender on the BBC's Great British Menu, Chef Groves is celebrated for his innovative approach to contemporary French cuisine. At Middle & Over, he masterfully combines this culinary tradition with the freshest, locally sourced, seasonal ingredients, such as Sussex asparagus, strawberries, honey, and artisanal local cheeses.
Mildmay serves traditional British cuisine in a relaxed dining atmosphere. The restaurant’s classical approach is both casual and charming and features our popular fish pie and beef Wellington, showcasing locally sourced ingredients from Sussex and the South Coast.
The informal setting is ideal for diners looking for a comfortable and cosy experience with familiar fare and friendly table service.
Our team have worked hard to develop a picnic that embraces the festival tradition, such a key and much loved part of the Glyndebourne experience.
The Traditional Picnic features sharing treats that you might find in a carefully packed homemade picnic. All freshly prepared daily using local suppliers.
Glyndebourne hosts a variety of events throughout the year, including the Glyndebourne Opera Cup, Christmas Concerts, Community Operas and study events. A wide range of different dining options are available to accompany these events.
