“A very apt restaurant for business meetings” – Tim Hart’s (of Rutland’s Hambleton Hall) “smart and modern” brasserie has long been known for its professional standards, and this has remained the case since 2019, when he moved it from its location of two decades’ standing into his boutique hotel in the city. Its hallmarks are “top-class food and drinks”, “slick and friendly service” and “the added bonus of an outside area in summer”.

“The food is always reliable, the service always friendly” at this modern brasserie from Tim Hart (of Rutland’s luxury Hambleton Hall), which opened to considerable acclaim 25 years ago. Long-time regulars regret that it’s “not quite the same ambience since it sadly moved into the hotel” from its former quarters in 2019 – although “I’m just glad Hart’s is still available in one form or another!”

“Culinary standards are being maintained, but the smaller new venue is a little less inviting” is the near-universal ‘take’ on Tim Hart’s “downsized” modern brasserie, which has left its seminal 1990s quarters (Jonathan Meades was a big fan, back in the day) to be incorporated into the former bar of his nearby hotel, near the Castle: “the entrance is unprepossessing and surroundings somewhat cramped, but the food’s fine”.

For 32 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).
