About us

Our location is the first thing you will appreciate when you visit The Bracebridge. We’re within Sutton Park itself, sat beside Bracebridge Pool. We’re the restaurant in the park.

Nestled among the trees on a location that dates back to the 15th century. The restaurant and outdoor terrace have stunning views. Our covered terrace looks out onto the pool, which is more a lake than a pool. It’s so bright, open and airy that we’re certain you’ll love it as we do.

Our Restaurant 

We have worked hard to create The Bracebridge as it is today. We’re in a place of natural beauty and occupy a historic building. It was important to us to be both tasteful and respectful. We took inspiration from our location to inform our interior decor. We used earth tones and textures taken from the surrounding foliage.

These combine to promote a relaxing indoor dining space. It’s an attempt to bring the outside inside. Classic art deco influences result in decor that’s plush and a touch glamorous, can you tell we’re proud of it? We’ve created a cosy space. Cosy, but not cramped. There’s plenty of room between tables. We can accommodate large groups and intimate dining at the same time.

Our Terrace

Our heated and covered terrace is open year-round for al fresco dining or just a few drinks and a pizza from our friends cofton pizza. It’s a lovely place to eat while you enjoy the view. We love how the view changes throughout the seasons too. Each with its own character. If you think it’s beautiful in summer, wait until you see autumn. Heating and faux furs are available for those who love a stark winter view, or enjoy the first flush of spring.

We’re surrounded by beautiful woodland walks, right on our doorstep. Ideal if you need to work up an appetite. We’re a favourite among cyclists and walkers. We love dogs too, if you’ve brought a friend.

Then peruse the food menu which is a range of dishes designed to be shared. We have a love of locally grown foods. Delicious, fresh and good for the environment. What’s not to love? It also introduces a seasonality to our dishes and so our menus will change throughout the year.
