Ben Quinn's Long Table Banquet In The Woods
Coming Soon
In The WildFriday, Saturday and Sunday 15:00 - 18:00
In The Wychwood Forest
Wilderness favourite Ben Quinn returns, but this time he’s doing what he and his trusty Woodfired Canteen crew do best, laying their iconic long table deep in our woodland wilds, and it promises to be a sublime experience.
Woodfired's approach to feasting has always been about making connections that lead to lifetime memories. Ben's menu, which includes multiple courses cooked on fire, will be shared at the centre of the table, creating the perfect opportunity to connect with other dinners in the wilds of Wilderness.
Guests will be transported to their very own grand woodland dining room. Expect perfectly paired drinks, delectable dishes cooked over open fire and a table drenched in sparkling sunlight as it bounces from chandelier to woodland canopy. This is an experience you’re not going to want to miss.
