King Charles’s Highgrove House has come under fire from tourists over the steep price of a sausage roll listed on its menu. The former private residence of King Charles and Queen Camilla, located near Tetbury in Gloucestershire, is known for its picturesque gardens that have been lovingly crafted over 40 years with input from the King himself.
While the estate attracts garden enthusiasts and royal fans alike, many visitors were shocked by the cost of food at the Orchard Room Restaurant, particularly the pork and leek sausage roll, priced at £15.25. The dish, served with coleslaw and piccalilli mayonnaise, was criticized as “very expensive” by disgruntled visitors, sparking a flurry of reactions online.
The Orchard Room Restaurant features a variety of light bites, including a black pudding scotch egg with bacon ketchup and charred leeks for £14.95, a seasonal soup of the day with artisanal bread for £12.25, and a Ploughman’s lunch for £19.
The main course options also raised eyebrows, with pan-fried chicken breast with new potatoes and vegetables priced at £26.95 and pan-fried sea bass listed at £23.95. For those looking for a lighter option, the menu offers the Highgrove cream tea—a freshly baked scone with berry preserve and clotted cream, accompanied by tea or coffee, for £15.
Despite the criticism over prices, Highgrove House continues to draw visitors eager to explore its beautifully curated gardens and enjoy the regal dining experience.
