Harden's survey result
Summary
This Victorian boozer on the Duke of Somerset’s estate reopened in 2021 (with rooms) after a posh refit by Andrew Kelly and James Thurstan Waterworth (the ex-European design director at Soho House). Despite the rather rapid exit of initial chef Nye Smith – to Rochelle Canteen boss Margot Henderson’s new venture, ‘The Three Horseshoes’, in Batcombe – its local/seasonal menu gained solid marks this year.
Summary
This plush June 2021 launch from an ex-Soho House team on the Duke of Somerset’s estate (it used to be named after him) offers a “brilliantly executed dining experience plus fantastic rooms to stay in”. FOH Ben Jones and chef Nye Smith “are an emerging force in great destination hospitality” – although they have yet to fully persuade reporters that they have achieved their stated aim of creating the ‘best pub in the South West of England’.
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).
