Harden's survey result
Summary
The Ogrodzki’s “traditional neighbourhood bistro” is a real local magnet for its accomplished Gallic cooking, with Jay Rayner’s 2021 review in The Observer also praising its beautiful homage to the ‘80s. In June 2022, after almost a decade in business, the fine diner pivoted to a more casual bistro/‘Café du Midi’, offering breakfast and set lunch menus from 10am-4pm. Whether or not less is more, it was praised this year for its “changing seasonal menus, authentic dishes, pleasantly cluttered” decor and “delightful service that’s so verrrrry French”.
Summary
This warmly authentic Gallic spot from chef Yves and his wife Elisabeth Ogrodzki, veteran restaurateurs who have cooked their way to Cheltenham from Paris, Provence and rural Leicestershire, wins consistent high ratings – and thrilled Jay Rayner of The Observer for channelling another age (the ’80s) “and beautifully so”.
Summary
A “delightful, very warm experience” is provided by French owners at this small and “cluttered” spot. “Chef Yves and front-of-house Elisabeth are absolutely charming and thoroughly professional”. “Tasty” Gallic cuisine provides “bistro cooking to a T” from “an ever-changing regional menu” to complete the deal.
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).
