Harden's survey result
Summary
“A truly memorable experience…”, “an all-time favourite” – this converted 16th-century manor house near the south bank of the Humber remains a culinary bastion in a thinly provided region: it remains North Lincs’ only holder of a Michelin star. Chef James Nicklin has been in the team for four years and took over the reins as head chef in early 2024. He continues to offer an eight-course menu for £170 per person (next to which a room for £59 Wed-Fri and £100 on Saturday sounds like a bargain!). All reports suggest the food continues to be “excellent as always” despite (because of?) “the restructure to a more informal setting” whereby the open kitchen has been incorporated into the dining room itself: “it was good to see the new head chef at work, getting involved with the guests”.
Summary
“If food is love, there is no better place to feel totally wined and dined!” according to fans of this converted sixteenth-century manor house, near the southern banks of the Humber. As the holder of the only Michelin star in North Lincs, it has long been a culinary beacon in this thinly provided neck of the woods and won particular praise this year for “a tasting menu that’s second to none… and the fact that you can stay over too for the perfect date!”. “Really interesting wines from some unusual locations” is another feature that attracts praise. Overall, the establishment’s ratings were dragged down a little this year by a couple of “average” or “overpriced” meals. But, in April 2023 – late in the day for feedback in our annual diners’ poll – the restaurant relaunched with ‘a new immersive experience’ that promises to be ‘like nothing you’ve experienced before’ (‘by knocking through walls and incorporating our kitchen into the restaurant itself, you can [apparently] taste, smell and fully immerse yourself in an unrivaled restaurant experience’). We’ve maintained the former ratings but they are less certain than usual at this time of change.
Summary
“A little off the tracks but worth a visit” – this converted sixteenth-century manor house near the southern banks of the Humber has long been a beacon in something of a gastronomic wasteland (and boasts Lincolnshire’s only Michelin star). Its recherché location and plush rooms lead many diners to plan dinner as part of a “very relaxing” overnight stay and a Manchester-based fan feels “the whole experience is worth the journey from anywhere in the UK” (“from arriving to leaving the whole visit is unforgettable”). “There’s an excellent 8-course tasting menu” and the “food, quality of local produce, presentation and service are fabulous”. “Good wine flight selection too.”
Summary
“Tricky to get to but well worth a visit” – Colin McGurran’s “luxurious” restaurant with rooms (a converted sixteenth-century manor house), near the southern banks of the Humber, remains a leading culinary destination. The setting is “sophisticated and relaxed” and – under head chef Gareth Bartram – the cuisine is “superb”, with the main evening option being an eight-course tasting menu “with a maximum of local ingredients and good variety”.
