"Disappointing. The setting of the house and views are spectacular. However the service was disorganised and erratic. Despite notifying allergies in writing before (and confirmed all would be fine), at check in to the hotel they had no knowledge and went through again. At the pre-dinner drinks they had no knowledge and had to go through and then yet again at the table they did not know and went through for the fourth time. All different people who did not seem to talk to one another! Went for the tasting menu but the courses either had long delays or one plate replacing the prior as you finished the last mouthful. In terms of the food it was a mixed bag. Asparagus was good and the Gin Tonic halibut ok. The Aubergine Ravioli was rubbery and little taste and suspect had been standing for a while. Bass was excellent and really tasty. The beef filet was too well done for my liking and a little tough. We were then introduced to an amuse bouche palette cleanser (but actually just the next course) of Onion ice-cream that was so strong we could taste it the next morning (and not a pleasant taste). This was our 45th wedding anniversary meal (reception knew but I suspect not the dining room) and the worst of 45 special meals we have had. Will not be going back!"

This place is a hidden gem! I visited with a colleague and three clients and we all had a fantastic time. The service, food, wine, and ambiance were all exceptional.

A great spot for a celebration. We came for high tea and enjoyed our little luxury. Beautiful views over the garden. A large selection of teas to choose from. wonderful tower with sandwiches and tiny cakes and other delicacies.

I was very disappointed with my experience at Verjus. I was looking forward to trying it out and was excited when a friend recommended it for brunch. Unfortunately, it did not live up to my expectations and I do not plan on returning. View menu

We had dinner in Cliveden's beautiful dining room for our Anniversary. It was fabulous from start to finish. Service, food, wine, the view all just exceptional. Thank you to all the staff for making our evening so very special. We shall definitely be back.

I entertained a visiting US colleague in the Cliveden Dining Room. We both went for the tasting menu (AKA The Great Cliveden Journey accompanied with paired wine from the Sommeliers’ Cellar Selection It was fabulous not just the quality of the food wine but the unique atmosphere and superb service. My colleague said it was the best night he 'd had for a long time : Truly a memorable experience Highly recommend.

The restaurant had dirty cutlery and wrinkled tablecloths. The vegetarian menu was lacking in creativity, with broccoli served for both the starter and main course. It was expensive and overall a low-class dining experience. The staff were friendly but the lack of attention to detail was disappointing. We were hesitant to complain during our special occasion, but felt the need to express our dissatisfaction. We were not impressed and would not return. Additionally, there was a broken toilet in the men's restroom. Truly disappointing. View menu

This is a beautiful place with fine dining. We booked dinner for our wedding anniversary and arrived early to look around the grounds. We were given a very warm welcome and showed to the gardens via the bar (perfect for our pre-dinner drink). We were given a wonderful table overlooking the parterre. I would certainly recommend asking for one when you book. Service was friendly and attentive but not stuffy. Food was well crafted and attractively presented. If I have any criticism, it was the price of drinks. Only one of us was drinking alcohol (OK I did have one pre-dinner drink) and yet the bar bill almost equalled the food bill!

We recently celebrated our 30th anniversary with a two-night stay at this restaurant. Unfortunately, our dining experience was very poor. The breakfast was only average and the food seemed pre-cooked and cold, not any better than our local pub. The atmosphere was lacking, with only four tables occupied. We found the Astor Grill to be much better. It seems like all the resources and the chef were focused on the wedding in the next room, which ultimately ruined our anniversary celebration. However, the hotel stay and spa were excellent, and the staff were polite and attentive. Despite reaching out via email and online feedback about our meal, we have yet to receive a response two weeks later....
