Hylton Espey and his wife Petronella are already winning awards for their hyper-seasonal approach with many foraged ingredients at their ambitious yearling, on Custom House Quay: a 30-seat venue presenting a seven-course menu for £75 per person. As yet, we’ve had too limited feedback for a definitive rating, but all reports to-date are ecstatic.

South African chef Hylton Espey (formerly at Merchants Manor hotel) with his wife Petronella opened this July 2022 newcomer on Custom House Quay, just by the sea, with a hyper-seasonal approach including many foraged ingredients. His ‘Journey Menu’ provides seven courses for £65 per person and is served from an open kitchen, and design-wise the 30-cover room adopts a pared-back approach featuring bare brick-work, wood and steel.

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
