Twycross Zoo

Twycross Zoo is an award-winning conservation charity set across more than 80 acres of countryside on the Leicestershire and Warwickshire border. Home to around 500 animals, including some of the world’s most endangered species, the zoo is particularly celebrated for its work as a World Primate Centre. Food and drink are a key part of the experience, offering visitors a variety of places to enjoy a meal or a treat during a day of wildlife discovery.

Something for every adventure

Across Twycross Zoo, a collection of restaurants, cafés and food spots brings plenty of choice to a day of exploring. The View Restaurant serves freshly made pizzas, hearty pasta dishes and family favourites, accompanied by views of the snow leopard habitat. Jungle Eats offers freshly prepared burgers and loaded fries, while The Outpost combines crowd-pleasing snacks with a lively outdoor space for families to enjoy.

Elsewhere, The Catch Fish Bar serves traditional fish and chips made with sustainably sourced fish and locally grown potatoes. Sweet treats are also part of the experience, including warm doughnuts from The Doughnut Den, while Oh Crumbs! Café and Costa Coffee offer familiar favourites, sandwiches and hot drinks. A selection of kiosks throughout the zoo provides even more choice, ensuring there's something to suit every appetite.
