October 2021: The restaurant has yet to reopen as Robert Thompson concentrates on his "You be Chef" home delivery box business.
Harden's survey result
Summary
Stop Press – as of January 2023, much-garlanded chef Robert Thompson is “back to his own establishment after a brief venture to Cowes’ North House” (now rebranded as Foresters Hall), a fancy boutique hotel that was reportedly not fancy enough to make a good match for his high-end cooking. Fans couldn’t be more delighted that his “amazing” venue is back in business, and “while the food is centre stage”, the “service and theatre of it all are a great support act” (particularly if you sit downstairs – home to the open kitchen).
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).
