About
Nestled in the heart of Greenbank Park, The Watering Can is a glass‑fronted restaurant that offers sweeping views of the Victorian gardens and the surrounding countryside. The cuisine is a celebration of seasonal produce, curated by Head Chef Samantha and inspired by the natural beauty of the park. Guests can enjoy a range of meals from a hearty Sunday roast to a festive Christmas Eve breakfast, and the ever‑popular Naughty Santa brunch on the holiday season. The restaurant caters to all, welcoming dogs on short leashes, supporting wheelchair access, and providing highchairs for families with young children. A warm, inviting atmosphere combined with friendly service makes it a favourite for both casual diners and special event occasions.
