Delicious Dining at Highcliffe Care Home

Fish and chips are an old favourite – especially when you’re by the seaside! Naturally, they might turn up on our menu on a Friday.  Our chef and his team make sure it tastes great – with fresh fish and homemade batter.

There’s an emphasis on freshly cooked, healthily balanced meals, made with locally sourced produce where possible. We’re good at catering for poor appetites and know how to make food look great.

Between meals, we’re spoiled too – with home-baked cakes and pastries and fresh fruit. Our residents’ guests are always welcome to dine with us at any time. We love to make mealtimes a sociable occasion. Come and join us!
