Harden's says
Formerly at The Vine Tree pub in Llangattock, Matt Sampson is upping sticks in June 2026 to take over the former Michelin Green Star Chapters (RIP) in Hay on Wye. The chef – who includes Ynyshir, Casamia and L'Enclume on his CV – will offer a multi-course tasting menu.

Our reviews are based on an annual survey of ordinary diners which runs in Spring each year. But this establishment has not yet gathered enough feedback for our editors to write it up.
Do you think it deserves to be better known?
Write a quick review now using our restaurant diary service. That way it might catch our attention. Next survey, you can transfer your diary entry into our survey system. Everyone who contributes 5 or more reviews in our survey will qualify for a free guide.
For 35 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).
