OUR STORY

in·ter·lude \ ˈin-tər-ˌlüd
A period or event that comes between two others and is different from them       

Interlude is a contemporary restaurant located in Horsham and set within the historic woodland gardens of Leonardslee Estate. Restaurant Interlude opened at Leonardslee House in October 2018 and won its first Michelin Star in August 2019 under chef Jean Delport.

Chef Jean Delport and his team are committed to providing each and every guest with a place to interact with nature and eat from the land in an unexpected food journey.

An ever-changing set menu draws inspiration from our listed gardens, produce grown in Interlude’s own vegetable gardens or surrounding land and by local farmers where organic principles are employed.

Our menu is guided by what is available in our garden, we strive to build our pantry through patient harvesting and preservation, taking food back to basics and showcase old traditional produce where possible.

Our unique cuisine is built on old and new techniques and we endeavour to show enormous respect for nature and seasonality by bringing our gardens to life within the restaurant.
