We have taken the tasting menu at le manoir aux quat saisons; yours was far better. In fact it is the best tasting menu we have ever eaten. The truffle starter blew our minds; the asparagus was like we have tasted before and the final dessert was out of this world. This is a small place and that gives the chefs time to prepare each course to match the pace at which the meal is being consumed. The next course is served fresh at the table as soon as it is prepared. The wines offered with each course were an enhancement to the flavours. An excellent evening out.

We had a lovely post Wedding brunch for our daughter and her new husband the food was outstanding it’s such a cosy place to eat. There were 12 of us as our American family joined us so we had the whole place to ourselves. They had never experienced anything like it before and were blown away. It’s the perfect spot for brunch and never disappoints.

Lovely intimate restaurant with a laid back vibe, service was great, friendly yet professional. Calm and organised kitchen, perfect music creating a wonderful atmosphere. The food was incredible, so tasty, fresh and different, loved the set menu, enjoyed trying things wouldn’t normally order. Small plates but more than enough, left feeling very full and satisfied. Perfect for a special occasion.

We are lucky that this was not our first visit and once again the food and service were exceptional. We enjoyed each and every course along with some excellent wine. Could not fault a single thing. David

Chef's Table is such a lovely experience. This time, we went for Sunday lunch. As always, the food was delicious, with fresh locally sourced ingredients used to create delightful plates of food. The service was excellent - friendly and approachable. This is such a gem of a restaurant. Thank you for having us and making us so welcome.
