With indoor and outdoor seating, Chiswick Cafe serves delicious sandwiches, soups, and modern British cooking using produce from the Kitchen Garden. Chiswick House Café is open at 8.30am every day except for Christmas Day. With the exception of assistance dogs, dogs are not allowed inside the café and must be kept on a short lead in the vicinity of the café building. The café has a covered seated terrace where dog owners with their pets are most welcome to enjoy the new facility. The friendly staff at Chiswick House Café are led by a general manager from Company of Cooks. Designed by award-winning architects Caruso St John, the contemporary space looks out on the magnificent gardens and neo-Palladian villa. In 2011 the Café received three RIBA awards including London Building of the Year.
