"We booked for dinner for our first time to Winchester and so very glad we did. The building was gorgeous and we were very happy, tucked away in a small room (4 tables only) to the left of the front door. The discovery of a lovely bar and lounge upstairs when visiting the loo was a nice surprise addition too. The staff were attentive, chatty and bright. They had a small, new menu and we were delighted with the results I'd much rather have a small menu done incredibly well than a sprawling one which might not deliver. The food was sublime I'd happily eat it all again! You're looking at prices more familiar in London, but for a treat night out it was totally worth it!"

I've been here several times. Perfect every time. 45 miles to get there, but it's worth it.

We went for a day out in Winchester and found ourselves let down by so many things being closed, unavailable, etcFinding Chesil Rectory was a treat.

This restaurant has a fantastic location and exceptionally welcoming staff. They offer both á la carte and 2/3 course menus for diners to choose from.
Muhammad
The food was delicious, the atmosphere very nice. Staff was very friendly, but not very well informed about the menu and maybe not very well trained. Still, we enjoyed our dinner very much.
Margaretha
Great food. Seafood starters, pink lamb main, cheesecake then cheese and biscuits with recommended wine choices. Absolutely first class. Knowledgeable bar staff and waiting staff. Good banter with the men; young girls very quiet. Overall the perfect venue for our wedding anniversary celebration. We will be back

Third time of eating here and again it was really good, then finished of the evening with cocktails at the bar upstairs, not only is the building at the top of the history table, the food, service, people, staff were really were really great. We booked this up months ago for my wife's birthday and it was really worth the drive from Essex. A must for everyone.

We had a lovely meal and a gracious reception on arrival. Young waiter was polite if a little inexperienced. My only tiny criticism would be that one guest’s coffee was delivered tepid (but was removed from bill without quibbling). The food was excellent, the wine good, the ambience was quiet and welcoming, the seating comfortable...I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a super meal in civilised surroundings.

No complaints about tasting menu it was good. Matching wines ok, first good, other less so. What I do not want to get to 9 with pre-booked tasting menu, table not ready, dumps up for half an hour near a very loud wedding party, normal menu handed us over when we have already chosen. A drink was offered after 10 minutes, but we didn't want an aperitif somewhere else with friends. No real excuse. It got better when we sit down.
