Popular après ski dining event returns to Ripon

Tuesday, 29 October 2024 at 07:41

Grantley Hall’s 'Après at The Orchard' is back.

A popular après ski event in collaboration with Moët & Chandon is returning to Ripon this winter.

Grantley Hall’s ‘Après at The Orchard’ will see guests step into a luxurious Après-Bar setting, nestled at the heart of Grantley Hall’s manicured grounds.

Following the success of previous years, Après at The Orchard will combine “elegant décor” and “cosy chalet-chic”, bringing the exciting atmosphere of the French Alps to Yorkshire.

There will be a carefully curated alpine-inspired menu and a handcrafted drinks list.

Seasonal dishes include French onion soup, served with a Gruyère crouton, whole baked Camembert with traditional cranberry sauce and chicken schnitzel with potato salad and crispy capers.

The menu is complemented by a selection of Moët & Chandon Champagne, innovative Champagne cocktails and one of the UK’s first listings of the highly coveted Moet & Chandon Grand Vintage 2016, prior to its official release in restaurants in January 2025.

Nuno César de Sá, General Manager of Grantley Hall, said:

“We are thrilled to launch Après at The Orchard for its fourth year at Grantley Hall and every year it gets better and better.

“Created by Head Chef, Craig Atchinson, this year’s menu really captures the essence of traditional alpine fayre with a range of comforting and warming dishes.

“The team have worked their magic to bring this year’s vision to life, and I cannot wait to welcome guests into the space”.

Grantley Hall has also announced the return of its ever-popular Sunday Sessions at The Orchard, offering live acoustic music on Sunday evenings from 6pm.

Guests are invited to soak up the elegant atmosphere whilst listening to the relaxed melodies of an array of talented musicians.

Bookings are not required for guests who wish to enjoy a drink or two, reservations are only essential for dining.
