Harden's survey result
Summary
Very promising but limited (too much so for a rating) feedback on the food at this funky new boutique hotel, which opened shortly before our annual diners’ poll concluded and inhabits a six-storey building near Chinatown. The Observer’s Jay Rayner was an early fan too, declaring in a May 2022 review that – “the kitchen… led by chef Iain Thomas, is cooking a truly delightful and admirably tight menu of diverting dishes, which reveal their joys a little at a time... and all at a price positioned to comfort rather than terrorise”.
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).
