The best restaurants serving Other european-cuisines food in Alfriston Wealden South East

Spectacular setting floor to ceiling windows overlooking acres of vineyardsJust outside the medieval charming town of Alfriston it is a long drive to Tasting Room - the kind of entry one is used to in the great vineyard restaurants of Adelaide Hills Margaret River in Australia and Franschoek and Stellenbosch in South AfricaWe did feel we were transported to these countries but such good news for UK as there is little in the way of this in Bordeaux To cap it off the food was eclectic and creative - the gazpacho was topped with iberico ham and floating chorizo croquettes - an acknowledgement to this real Spanish dish.The courgette floor as a main was interesting stuffed with buffalo cheese and other accompaniments such a violet artichoke.The three course menu at £37 good value As there are a limited number of tables it is necessary to book well in advance We will nee backThe chef gained Michelin star at his previous restaurant so he comes here with a reputationTo cap it off the sparkling wines are exceptional - elegant and lingering taste

We went there Thursday 12th for the panda experience. As we'd traveled from near Reading we got there slightly early. EVERYONE was very friendly and we ate at the café beforehand. Nice food and drink, fair priced. The zoo itself is relatively small compared to others but clean, well- presented and animals looked in good condition. Chloe, their keeper, was kind, friendly and knowledgeable and we prepared their food. The 2 red pandas were adorable and the whole encounter was lovely and a little emotional/ moving. It was fantastic and we had a great time thank you all. Only downside is the looped music in some parts which would drive me mad 🤣
