Had an excellent evening meal, before staying the night. A lovely breakfast the following morning. The four of us were celebrating our Ruby Wedding Anniversaries. Lovely atmosphere. Very good service.

So went to celebrate my birthday which was a few days earlier. From the moment we walked in the atmosphere was friendly and welcoming and the surroundings comfortable. The staff were friendly and provided excellent service throughout. The food was beautifully presented at each course. We ate cheese brûlée and scallops for starters and the fillet of pork and guinea fowl for mains. Each course was a feast for the eyes and taste buds. Although at the higher end price wise we thoroughly enjoyed our fine dining experience. Go on treat yourself or spoil a loved one and dine at The Lake Isle!

For lunch on our return after more than a decade we found the set menu was short, inexpensive, tasty and very good value. Starters of Roasted pumpkin and squash salad and Crab risotto both had enlivening extra ingredients. Roast Breast of chicken was the only non-veggie main, but it was excellent. Guests at other tables seemed to be enjoying the Carrot and sage wellington. We had eaten so well that we weren’t tempted by the £4 addition for desserts on top of the £24 for 2 courses. The selection of wines by the glass was adequate and of good quality. Super service throughout. We shouldn’t have left it so long between visits, and will return much sooner.

Chose the Sunday roast lamb. It came just with ratatouille style veg but no potatoes. I was still hungry at the end of it. My friend had the beef which was piled high with Yorkshire pud, potatoes and other veg which was too much for even his healthy appetite. I finished a full 20 mins before he gave up on his. I complained next day but wasn’t offered anything to compensate

We did the dinner, bed & breakfast package which financially is well worth doing. The menu has a good amount of choice and they were able to make changes where requested - for example my partner had the beef but does not like Stilton so they just did him a peppercorn sauce. We had three course and they were all delicious. The amount of food suprised us, big portions which is often not the case at fine dining type restaurants. Needless to say we were stuffed by the end! The service was impeccable, it is clear that staff have all been trained to a high standard. All staff we experienced were efficient, professional and welcoming. A lovely meal and fantastic stay. Thank you

Staying and eating at The Lake Isle was an absolute delight. It really is an example of best in class, in this case ‘Restaurant with Rooms’. The freshly refurbished room was calm & comfortable, mercifully free of the tendency to be ‘quirky’ too often found in ‘boutique’ establishments. The highlight was the modern bathroom which was vast with a large walk in shower and bathtub which we put to good use. Given the size it was odd that there was only one basin and some hooks would have been handy but full marks for effort. Supper in the restaurant was exemplary. So nice to be given complimentary bread to start, a rarity these days. There was an excellent offer of interesting and imaginative dishes; the scallops and guinea fowl were outstanding. The ubiquitous fish&chips/burger cliches nowhere to be seen which sets the tone for serious dining. Most impressive was the generous portion sizes and fair pricing. Bravo all round. The only slight mis-step was the Cranachan pudding which bore no resemblance to the Scottish classic. I must make special mention of the breakfast. It’s a proper offer of real breakfast food; my wife had kippers (delicious) and I had the Full English which was superb and included Fried Bread! Shame on me for forgetting how marvellous this traditional accomplishment is. I have now resolved to reintroduce it to my home repertoire. The staff were universally polite and friendly, even when dealing with ‘unfortunate‘ behaviour from other guests. For example, while at breakfast a couple came into the dinning room, he wearing a baseball cap indoors (uncouth) and she carrying a large disposable coffee cup bought elsewhere (disrespectful). Not a hint of well deserved disapproval from the waiter who demonstrated the good manners that they would have done well to learn from. Thank you so much to all at The Lake Isle; we shall return.

I had lunch at The Lake Isle again today. The food was a taste extravaganza! I had a tasty salad with herb dressing and pomegranate seeds to start. The main course was lentil and sweetcorn croquettes with crispy chickpeas, cauliflower hummus, and kale. It was perfection on a plate and all the flavours complemented each other beautifully. The chef is a genius! I could happily eat it every day! The dessert was strawberries and ice cream. Delicious!

I didn't have the pleasure of staying there but did have the wonderful experience of dining here one evening. I couldn't fault any one component throughout the evening. The staff were well presented, polite and friendly. The restaurant dining area was bustling with the the hubbub of happy and appreciative diners. What stood out particularly in the restaurant was their decision not to over cram the floorspace with tables to maximise the amount of covers, but have chosen to serve the correct amount of diners to consistently deliver impeccable food and superb service. A very impressive selection was available and all of it was of the highest quality. I take my hat off to the whole team as you made a first night a very pleasant one.

I was today in this restaurant for my friend's 60th birthday. I will write this review regarding one outstanding dish only " the mushroom parfait". I was not expecting this at all, I thought it would be something crunchy, and a bit like a heavy paste but it was the opposite. It reminded a restaurant in Barcelona " El Bulli " in which you could experiment molecular gastronomy. This parfait was so light and so well balanced. One flavour was not domineering another flavour. It reminded me a restaurant in my town ( Paris ). Yes, yes, yes the other dishes were very good but this one was just from another level.

My husband and I have stayed at The Lake Isle more or less every year since around 2003. The reasons we keep returning year after year are listed below:- The attention to detail is second to none here from the staff, the food, rooms ambience etc. The investment that the owners have put into this business is incredible, particularly after the ravages of covid to the hospitality sector. We have travelled all over the UK both on work and business, staying at various hotels along the way and without a shadow of a doubt The Lake Isle stands out far and above the rest. The owners are so attentive, yet never overpowering, it is the most relaxing place to visit. Finally we cannot believe that this establishment is no longer in the Michelin guide book and fully intend to convey our dismay to Michelin .

This is the sort of restaurant we would typically head for to celebrate a birthday or the like but, as we were just on holiday in the area and looking for something a little less fancy (or indeed expensive), Sunday lunch seemed a good compromise. I booked it a fortnight ahead and duly noted that anyone who doesn't have the courtesy to cancel in a timely manner is charged for the loss of the table - so it must be good - although in the event it was a very quiet service (and the atmosphere rather lacking as a result). All decent restaurants give you fresh bread to nibble whilst awaiting your starter and this was no exception, save that I found the white mini-loaf tasteless and well below par. I can't remember what my wife had for her first course but my stilton brûlée was very good, although when the plate was collected I did proffer my opinion that the textures were wrong and the dish would be improved if the rock-hard almond biscotti were substituted by Melba toast... Then came the mains. The beef was supposed to be the highlight of the meal and we thought we were in for a treat, but it was so tough that I couldn't even cut it. I explained my difficulty and was duly given a serrated knife instead, which solved the technical issue but did nothing for the beef itself. In true British manner I made the mistake of persevering rather than complaining, but I didn't enjoy it. The veg wasn't much better, being too fancy for it's own good, eg a beer-braised carrot. For this class of establishment it was in my view a 2* main at best. In the interests of science I couldn't resist trying the egg custard for dessert, and the one here was, in itself, excellent. As with the starter however, IMHO the dish was marred by it being accompanied by other elements that simply didn't belong together, including a very dominant sorbet. Needless to say we wished we'd chosen somewhere else - but then we'd have been none the wiser!

I can not recommend this place enough, fantastic food, fantastic service and a lovely atmosphere. The panko scallops were a dream, the duo of duck perfectly cooked and the triple cooked chips should be termed a potato each! Absolutely the best meal I’ve ever had.

This is my favourite restaurant at the moment.It's quite small, but by clever positioning of the tables, you don't feel crammed in or too close to fellow diners.The menu is interesting and I always find something nice to eat. The wine list is also good.It has a relaxing pleasant atmosphere and I always come away with a smile.

Returned to Lake Isle after a couple of yearsLooking forward to something really specialBut no,just an overpriced Filet with Giant chips £28.50For this price you could go to a Michelin star restaurant and get real perfectionIt does have a nice relaxing atmosphere but it needs to step to a more refined quality of dining for the prices charged

Five of us all enjoyed eating here, Some inventive dishes perhaps fewer item s in some dishes would be good . Loved the horseradish sorbet with beetroot and fallafelsDuck very good , The samphire pakoras were a bit hard and with the mussels made the otherwise good fish dish a little bitter . Lamb good and large portion,Excellent ice creams and sorbets . All well-presented and served.One wine not available and one not put in the chiller but more than enough to choose from. I recommend it , We stayed here for three nights and were very happy with it,

A lovely birthday meal. We visited last night and had such a great meal. Our waitress was so friendly and very attentive without it being too much. The food was to die for. And although the portions are perhaps a little smaller than the average, we both still left comfortably full and that was without a dessert. Will definitely be coming back!

Nicely spaced out and all the safety features in place. Very pleasant welcome and such happy and excellent staff. The food and service are at relais and chateau levels. My Somerset goats cheese brûlée was perfect as was my fillet of scotch beef with triple cooked chips and watercress salad. Just enough room to share the assiette of toffee to finish a great meal. Will go again soon.

First visit post lock down, 6 of us, in the snug upstairs which is furnished to a very high standard! We all had a fantastic evening from the service to the food and the wine. There was a lovely buzz about the place for a week night. With refreshed decor too, this still remains one of the top foodie hot spots in Rutland.

Since we last reviewed this restaurant (when we thought it had gone down a bit) it has clearly regained its quality. The socially distanced dining area is very safe and the staff know their menu well. Food presentation is superb and the wine list offers very good choices by the glass as well as their huge cellar. Every dish was just as it should be - full of interesting flavours and subtle sauces - and you should leave space for some outstanding desserts. This place remains well worth a journey and booking is essential.

Glad it’s open again. Had an excellent lunch today,good choice on menu. Excellent service and really good food. And having enjoyed all that we received the Chancellors present of £10 of each meal, so a most enjoyable bargain. All tables occupied and sensible COVID precautions in place. Hope to go again soon

We had such a lovely 3 course meal to celebrate our anniversary. The service was amazing and the food was out of this world. I had the fillet steak and my husband had the lamb. Both were cooked perfectly. I would definitely return and would recommend to anyone looking for somewhere special to celebrate a special occasion.

We dined and stayed on the first night open after lockdown on Friday and glad to report that food and service are both still excellent. covidsecurity provides confidence without being over intrusive and we felt safe and relaxed. Wish we lived nearer!

I have just dined at Lake Isle I felt compelled to review. Working away your own is tuff. Having to speak to family through FaceTime and dining alone. But WOW this place certainly turned the situation into a perk!!!What a gem of a find, situated in the beautiful countryside village of Uppingham, East Midlands. I have just had one of the best meals of my life!What a chef and staff! 5 star +

Small menu but everything we had was very very good. And reasonably priced. And a lovely spot looking over the lawn. What’s not to like

An absolutely perfect experience from the time we stepped into the pub until the time we left. The staff were very friendly and were very knowledgeable about the wines and food. The atmosphere was perfect as was the set menu and the breakfast. This pub is a real gem set in perfect countryside with lovely walks around. We will certainly be visiting it again.
