Fancy a feast fit for a bear? Head on down to The Rufford to explore our limited-edition Paddington inspired Kids menu! From make-your-own marmalade sandwiches to Peru-fect chicken strips and our delicious chocolate and orange jelly sundae, your cubs will be roaring for joy once they get their paws on this.
A wise bear might always keep a marmalade sandwich under his hat in case of an emergency, but our bear-illiant menu must be enjoyed at the table only. After all our Marmalade Chicken Wings or Blue-beary pancakes would be rather messy if kept under a hat, don’t you think?
