Harden's survey result
Summary
The now-national Brunning & Price chain made relaunching this very fine pub – owned by the Duke of Westminster and right by the gates to his Cheshire estate, Eaton Hall – their second project and very successful it has turned out. It remains a highly popular destination, aided by its fine interior and lovely garden with “lots of outdoor seating”. “The menu is reliable and varied, with something to suit all tastes and appetites. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and eager to please”.
Summary
This unusually grand and “busy gastropub” near the gates of the Duke of Westminster’s Cheshire estate is “probably the best Brunning & Price”. “We’ve eaten here many times over the years, and while the food has had its ups and downs, recently it’s been of top quality” – “it’s best to avoid weekends though, as it can get very busy: the price of success!” Top Tip – lovely garden in summer.
Summary
“Looking for a fantastic, well-priced supper? Look no further than The Grosvenor Arms at Alford”. This rather grand country pub (“library, conservatory, bar and snug”) on the edge of the Duke of Westminster’s Cheshire estate maintains “consistently high standards despite being a member of a large chain” – Brunning & Price – for whom this was the group’s first property.
For 34 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).
