Culinarily, the carvery is the centerpiece of the "Primrose Farm." Here, meats such as juicy beef, tender turkey, and spicy ham are slow-cooked for 14 hours before being freshly carved in front of the guests. The "Yorkshire Puddings," which are crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, are particularly popular and considered the perfect accompaniment to the roast. Additionally, there are "ruffled" roast potatoes, hand-prepared for an especially crispy texture, as well as a selection of fresh, seasonal vegetables and rich gravy.

For a sweet conclusion, the dessert station tempts with homemade cakes, including the "Sticky Toffee Pudding," a warm, sweet pastry with a rich toffee sauce that is often described as a highlight.
