The Dining Room at Whatley Manor Malmesbury Reviews from The Last Year
Bravo to Monty and all the team.
We stayed at Whatley Manor for a long weekend to celebrate reaching a significant age with most of my facilities intact, especially my taste buds and eye sight, and what a treat they were rewarded with in The Dining Room. From the moment they arrived with an additional off menu first course as we sipped aperitifs in the lounge, tiny pastry shells with crab topped with individual strands of grapefruit, the flavours exploding, it was a gastronomic experience. The crab was so delicious I wanted a large one as a main course, but more was to come as we moved to the kitchen to meet Monty the head chef for the night, and his team. We love fish so were delighted to have a concoction of mussels in a kind of panacotta, but the couple alongside us, one veggie one prejudiced against fish were also well catered for. Moving to the dining room Clare and her team, Matt, Amanda, Connor and some others couldn't have been more attentive. Each tiny work of of art ( matched by the genuine Miro on the wall above us !) was exquisite. Triangles of potato flavoured with balsamic and stuffed with lobster, layered caviar trifle, a creamy chicken topped with granola, a fillet of halibut with a crescent of mouth watering mash potato, tiny venison fillets. Clare patiently reiterated the ingredients after each course ( one's short term memory goes with age ) and Matt unhurriedly acquiesced with my decision to drink rather more wine than I'd intended. Puddings were equally yummy, accompanied by a naturally sweet wine from the Pyrenees. Yes it isn't cheap, but for ingredients of this quality and the hours of work that go into assembling each tiny dish it's worth every penny. We were so full at the end but I managed both mine and my partners home made chocolate and tiny marshmallow. Truly the finest tasting menu I've eaten to date. Bravo to Monty and all the team. A 70th birthday dining experience to remember.
Top drawer dinner and Spa break.
Tried the spa facility earlier this year so fancied another trip for same plus Michelin Dinner and overnight stay. So glad we did. The tasting menu was outstanding and delivered the WOW I'm sure all serious fine dining folk want to have when paying decent money. Such quality in flavours . Generous portions. Good ingredients. On top of that service was friendly, perfectly timed and we never felt rushed. A nice bonus to start off was a few Amuse Bouche in front of the kitchen staff hard at work . Wonderful to see the precision and team work. Then to wrap up at 1am in the bar over a G&T, we were so pleased to have an appearance from Ricki Weston himself. I wanted to compliment him on a brilliant meal. This really is worthy of being 2 Michelin Stars in our opinion.
Lovely venue. Great service. Exciting food
Really lovely evening and amazing food. Staff were really attentive, well informed, friendly and extremely accommodating. Was really interesting to have one of the courses in the kitchen to see them in the real environment Food was tasty and brilliantly presented We had the pairing wines and when we weren’t keen on one of them we we’re offered alternatives without any issue. Twice on one occasion. So good and amendable. Doesn’t happen in some restaurants Not cheap but was really enjoyable
A complete dinning experience
We visited the Dinning Room to experience their vast tasting menu and must say what an experience. It was great to meet and chat with head chef Ricki Weston to to observe his very calm and coordinated kitchen in operation. All 12 or so courses were exquisite and the presentation and service of them was all a 'theatre'. The only slight downside was the expensive cost of the the 'pre drinks' £19 for a gin and tonic !. All the staff were extremely courteous, knowledgeable and made the evening complete. For a Special Occassion we can't rate this place highly enough and would certainly recommend it for couples looking for that Michelin Star dinning experience.
Michelin star dining in the Cotswolds
We enjoyed dinner in the Dining room over the Easter break as part of a weekend stay at the hotel. The food and service were great. The restaurant was very quiet with only a handful of covers all evening and a large portion of the room sectioned off and empty.
Unforgettable, Exceptional, Genius on a Plate
We went to The Dining Room for my birthday last week. Off the scale brilliant. Food to die for. We don’t have enough words for how good it was. The only way I can describe it adequately is to say it is pure artistry, skill and passion playing out on every plate and in every mouthful. Kudos to Ricki and the whole team for what you have created and the experience you give your diners. It’s extraordinary. We’re not gourmets but we celebrate wonderful food when we experience it, and The Dining Room is among the very best there is. The service is exceptional - like everything at Whatley, it’s top quality while warm and welcoming. They make everyone feel special and you relax instantly. And that can’t be said of all restaurants of this quality - they really do put the diner, and your enjoyment of the food (and excellent wine list) at the heart of it. For anyone who enjoys fine dining in beautiful surroundings and exceptional service, we’d always recommend The Dining Room and Whatley Manor. We would also add that given the quality of the whole experience, and knowing how costs have increased massively in this industry in the past year or so, we felt the price was well worth it and appropriate. Enough from us - it’s a special place.
One star cuisine at 3 star prices
Having lost their second star, the Dining Room's prices singularly fail to reflect this demotion. At £175pp this equates with some of the finest restaurants in the land, but the anticipated quality and finesse is distinctly lacking. Having dined in all but one of the 3 star restaurants in the UK I do feel this judgement of quality and value to be fair and analytical. The Dining Room's proclamation of a "7 course tasting menu" is misleading as the various little extras that one normally receives gratis on a 5 course menu - canapes, amuse-bouches, petits fours - are (perhaps cynically?) included here as actual named courses. Ignoring subjective personal taste, of the seven "courses" three were truly delightful and faultless - brilliantly conceived, prepared and presented. The remainder ranged from pretty bland and unremarkable to incompetently ill-balanced and with poorly matched component flavours. The brief trip to the kitchen for the first "course" (most would call canapes) is a little gimmicky, but possibly interesting for those unfamiliar with the workings of a Michelin Star establishment. On the plus side: - The wine list is comprehensive and sensibly priced with availability to suit most pockets. - Service throughout is, from the moment of arrival, as one should expect at this level, attentive, courteous, efficient and professional. - The ambience and quality "feel" of the place are elegant and prestigious. However for those not staying overnight, having received the bill for the meal itself one is left feeling that one has paid heavily towards the excellent hotel and grounds (reviewed separately) rather than the just the meal. In summary the restaurant itself is overpriced by at least 25% and seems to have forgotten it is no longer a two star establishment.

Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.

Can come from a lot of places, people who don't want to get charged their cancellation fee or people who just have them and cant go.

almost all restaurants aren't affiliated with AT and I'm guessing it's mostly people wanting to not pay cancellation fees.
