Le Mazot, the brasserie, Whatley Manor in Wiltshire - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

It’s not too hard to do a decent roast, specially when you have a short menu and charge Whatley Manor’s prices. Uninspiring starters akin to what you might expect on an airline, bland, overcooked vegetables, unforgivably chewy inedible “crackling” on the porchetta. Roast beef that was style over substance. The same gravy (a Bisto dupe) offered with both meats! Nothing was memorable except the bill.

Well sadly not a great time was had we went for Sunday lunch seated at 12.20pm starters bread drinks arrived very quickly then all went downhill we saw at least 5 waiting staff working restaurant had 6 tables dining we were chatting and by 1.10pm noticed we had not had our roast lunch called a waiter who said it is on the pass 1.25pm it arrived a very long wait form starter to main when it arrived we not impressed 3 slices of the beef where so thin you could see through 2 pieces of carrot and the same of green vegetable and small amount of peas the best part of the lunch was roast potatoes and the gravy I think they must have changed staff and chef as for such a lovely restaurant as was before it is not great by the way the I am a small eater the portion would not have fed a child we did not stay for dessert we where off a free drink to which we did not want get it right as it spoils going out for lunch

I’m not sure if it’s because Niall has now left but we’ve been eating at Whatley for years and we’ve just had the worst meal we’ve ever had. Food was ok but that’s just it. It was just ‘OK’. We can only afford to eat here a couple of times a year. It’s very expensive but you’ve always got exactly what you’ve paid for. Normally the food is excellent. Not this time! Very sub standard meal. Hardly any gluten free options. My bread at the start of the meal was not even what I would class as bread. My husband had a lovely sourdough. Even Waitrose sells a lovely gluten free sourdough. I had some very thin flatbread type thing that was dry and inedible. Starters and main were literally just ok. My dessert was awful. A chocolate mouse that tasted as though it had been made with cocoa powder covered in dried candied peel which you just wouldn’t eat raw!! Never been so disappointed before. Probably won’t come again now which is a shame after so many years.

A lovely Friday evening meal for two. We visited for an early evening dinner. Service was very good and knowledgable. Food was excellent and reasonably priced. Great selection of wine and other drinks. Definitely worth a try.

As before lovely restaurant to have a first-class lunch service was very good the food was fresh tasty and hot all in all a lovely lunch thankyou to Oliver for sorting it out lovely young man

Superb fine dining experience featuring a limited but brilliantly executed a la carte menu.All dishes featured real refinement and sophistication.This was a real treat

Second visit to Whatley Manor into the slightly more relaxed Greys. Booked lunch with Jazz. Overall experience was great with a nice table and attentive service by the large number of staff around. Chose a Lager and Prosecco whilst we viewed the menu. A 3 course set menu which we had Pate and a fish starter followed by the Hake and Roast Beef with a bottle of South African Pinotage (Wine list very extensive and expensive) Brownie and Treacle tart followed. Food great quality. Horseradish with the beef sadly very bland with no kick to it. Jazz or rather the music was good but not reallywhat I would call Jazz. Recommend fr a special treat.

After a promising start where we had pre-dinner drinks in the garden, we were shown through to the restaurant for Jazz Sunday lunch. We were given a small pokey table in the corner right by the kitchen, also right in front of the band.. literally had to shout at each other all through the meal to have any conversation. Had to send both our meals back as they were cold. What came out was only slight hotter, the roast potatoes looked and tasted as though they had been in a deep fat fryer. Really bland underwhelming food. Seemed totally unrefined. How do you get Sunday lunch so wrong..? Finished with a drink outside..£20 for a glass of house Rose a bit steep when a bottle of Whispering Angel we had with lunch was only £65. As for the Jazz, a bit of a stretch to call it that, seemed more blues brothers. Not the refined lunch we were expecting in any shape or form, left £229 worse off for couple of hours which had no finesse about it at all. The gardens however were stunning.

We went as it was our anniversary and we wanted something good but not over the top. We did not tell them as we just felt it should be a normal meal. The food was great, nice flavours, good appearance and just right. We also had wine by the glass which also was of good quality. Service was good. A worthwhile visit to be repeated.

It is always a treat to come here, the location is sublime, the architecture is charming, the gardens are wonderful. I had booked ahead for a friends birthday. I prearranged drinks in the bar, so turn up half an hour early to enjoy a tipple in the beautiful lounge. The restaurant itself is modest but tasteful. We had a lovely table in the window. The menu was not complicated or overloaded with choices. 4 starters, 4 mains. A vegan choice, fish choice and two meat choices. I opted for the dressed crab served with the most delicious sour dough bread and whipped butter. We made a bit of a mess ( crumbs everywhere ), but don't change it. The main course was duck breast with stuffed leg plus peaches. Very filling and tasty. Staff were very professional and friendly. Can't recommend it more highly, but the bill was high. But you get what you pay for which is a wonderful experience.

As part of our stay at Whatley Manor we dined both in the formal dining room and the more informal Grey's Brasserie The food and the service in Greys both for Breakfast and Evening Meal was excellent. Well worth a visit and keep up the great work.

Wife and I went for Sunday lunch. The atmosphere and greeting were welcoming. The temperature perfect (on a very warm day). We knew it would not be cheap, but we paid through the nose for average food. My wife had lamb roast, which was eventually pretty good. We'd asked for 'well done', but it arrived pink, so we sent it back. No problem and it came back fine - but it's always a shame when people's meals are out of sync. My wife also returned her gravy, which was too salty for her to eat. Again replaced without question. I had Atlantic Cod, which I thought would come with similar veggies to the roasts. But no, it was explained it's a 'full meal on it's own'. It was £29.50 for a cereal bowl sized dish containing a fairly small slice of cod on a bed of samphire, all floating in what I think was salty melted butter. This would have been very small for a child's meal. When I mentioned this to the server, she offered me extra sides to complete my meal - which I accepted, but paid extra. I'm not inclined to return here, as there are so many excellent alternative venues nearby.

The staff serving were charming and pleasant as was the Sommelier. We can only think that they must have been embarrassed to carry the bowls to our table. I say bowls because 3 of us had sea bream on top of some indistinguishable vegetable, that would have looked better in a plate and we would have been able to use our knives and forks which proved impossible with a bowl. The fish itself was totally over cooked and dry. The fourth person had ravioli that would have had Italians in fits of laughter and would have justified their criticism of English cooking. The starter Gravlax with beetroot was not only pathetic in size but utterly tasteless. We can only assume that all your chefs and cooks were absent on this particular night. We knew it was going to be expensive we certainly weren’t disappointed at that. I can highly recommend any of the surrounding pubs that will provide far better food.

What an absolute treat to have gone to this fabulous establishment. Attention to detail, staff, food, simply bespoke.

Just wow amazing building friendly helpful staff the food on the sunday lunch menu was one of the best fine dinning menus the food is outstanding

We collected an amazing takeaway from Whatley Manor yesterday. The food was very tasty and really well presented. The staff were lovely, and arranged my NHS discount without a hitch

Although only a choice of two starters, main courses and desserts, it was still difficult to choose! An excellent meal with attentive service

Had a fabulous Sunday Lunch with my Family... Great Food and wonderful staff. Can not fault anything. Will definitely return.

Another incredible lunch at Grey’s Brasserie. Outstanding VFM if you consider the quality of the food, the ambience, and service. Really, couldn’t recommend it higher. We’ve been going for many years and it just gets better and better.

Most delicious lunch and incredible service I’ve experienced in some time. As a table we had copious amounts of the most delicious breads, then I enjoyed the crispy duck terrine, halibut, delicious pint neuf potato dish & a delicious chocolate namelaka..... everything was perfect & surprisingly good value for the level of service and food. We had two young children in our party who were both fed brilliantly and welcomed wholeheartedly - even when behaving as small children occasionally do! Cannot recommend highly enough, thank you!

The overall experience was super and very professional team, the food was amazing, we will definitely be doing this again. thank you for an amazing evening.

Perfect Christmas Present! We had special VIP treatment from the time we left our car with the porter to be parked till we left hours later.

Had a beautiful Sunday lunch, varied and seasonal menu, which tasted wonderful. Lovely relaxed atmosphere, beautiful decor and very attentive and friendly staff. Looking forward to our next visit.

As always the service at Wheatley manor was superb and coupled with beautiful grounds lit by garden flames plus a roaring fire in the lounge we started the evening in high spirits.

I was lucky enough to enjoy a beautiful meal in Grey's with my daughter. We made a mistake on the time of our booking but this was managed wonderfully by the staff and we were not hurried to our table or through our meal. We chose from the three course set menu and were not disappointed. Lovely food and wine enjoyed by us both. The service was excellent and attentive. My favourite hotel / restaurant which I hope to go to many more times.

We came for the Sunday Lunch + Cinema experience.

Really enjoyed the Sunday cinema package including lunch at Greys Brassiere. I don’t often review restaurants as so many places serve really good food nowadays but our Sunday lunch at Whatley Manor was excellent. The quality and choice of food was perfect and offered very good value in my opinion - perfectly cooked veg and great presentation. Service was rather rushed but I understand they were busy and trying to make sure everyone got into the cinema on time. My only negative was I didn’t find the table very comfortable, I felt cramped and very close to other guests which made service difficult for the team and the depth of the table meant I spent the whole time leaning forward to talk to my partner, just a bit uncomfortable. Overall a good experience though and would definitely visit again.

This restaurant is now firing on all cylinders.An earlier visit had identified some issues but Grey's is now serving great fare and the service is now top draw despite a full restaurant. The Maître D running this service was on the top of his game.

We arrived for dinner at 7pm a little early and was taken to the bar where we had a drink and snacks before going to the Brasserie. We were then quickly attended to and drink orders taken, along with the menus being explained.

This place never disappoints, I have visited many times and look forward to the next visit.

My husband took me to Gray's Brasserie for our anniversary. It was a wonderful experience. Every course was a delight: a perfect celebration right from the delicious Gusbourne English wine with the

Wonderful atmosphere. Excellent service. Attention to detail. Half of the meals were fantastic and the other half very good. Overall a lush evening out. Highly recommend and want to cone again every year!!

Service is very good, quiet, friendly and efficient. Food is delicious. We had set lunch menu which has limited choices but high standard and very good value for money.

Dinner with wife was most enjoyable and a huge improvement on former restaurant at Whatley Manor, le Mazot. Interesting menu and our main courses of roast cauliflower and cod fillet were both excellent.The meal was so good we both had delicious puddings . Wine list very expensive although the Pinot Grigio from Slovenia was enjoyed it was well over £30 a bottle. Would give the meal five stars but just a tad too expensive,

We have been coming to Whatley Manor to celebrate various family occasions for several years now and it never disappoints. This is this first time we have done the Sunday lunch and could not have asked for more. The food was delicious and plentiful and the setting as gorgeous as ever. It offers something a bit more than the standard 'country house hotels' in the Bath area - highly recommended.

We visited with friends. All of us enjoyed the food both starters and mains, one friend said the duck main was one of the best he’d tasted. Vegetarian choices were excellent. Mains are all above £20, side dishes would be required too generally. All additional.

We had not been to Whatley for many years although living locally, When we went many years ago we found it pretentious and overpriced. We we really pleasantly surprised, we had a spa package which was amazing and cannot fault Grey's Brasserie Decor and layout was lovely, informal enough to feel comfortable but at the same time felt special. Service was top class, freindly, knowledgable and then to the food. This was outstanding, prices reasonable (typical pub prices), really tasty and excellent value for money. We will be back

We had dinner here last night - the food and service was excellent - we had the Cote de Boeuf for two - perfectly cooked and the charred Brussels sprouts on the side were delicious!

The restaurant is lovely and very informal for such exclusive surroundings, the staff are extremely helpful, finding us a table even though we only rang a few hours before on New Years day, we have eaten here before and the food is always excellent, compliments to the chef.

My husband and I treated my parents to Christmas Day lunch at Grey’s Brasserie. We had not previously used the facilities of the hotel.

Very very average restaurant, it wasn’t clear on booking what restaurant Christmas lunch was in. The staff were fine and welcoming. Although throughout the whole meal the staff kept leaving the main door open and it was freezing, which is unacceptable on all levels. The meal was fine and tasty but nothing amazing. Nowhere near Michelin quality, the dessert was an afterthought and nothing else. After the meal the menu describes Coffee & treats, but we didn’t get any treats at all. For £150PP this whole experience was a waste of money. I will we willing to try the dining room experience for higher quality food and service. I found the greys brassiere way too informal. Also it was not Christmassy in the slightest, no Christmas trees, no Christmas music just a few wreaths. It just felt like another day. Would not recommend

Exceeded expectations! The food was delicious, our waiter (Bulgarian) was excellent! One area which could be improved upon is the range of wines served by the glass. No Champagne!

quite delightful ,the service was prompt and friendly with pre-lunch drinks. Lunch at Greys was very enjoyable ,Dimetre a great asset very pleasant manner. Hopefully Whatley is firmly back on course.We shall return in a few weeks

Love this restaurant as an casual alternative to Whatley Manors other amazing restaurant The Dining Room. The food is really tasty, well priced and very friendly service, this time by Chiara, always makes it an enjoyable evening. Another reason to visit Whatley Manor, as if you needed more!

Fantastic venue, service and food. A real treat. The whole experience is great from the moment you arrive, and the food is delicious.

Such a lovely hotel, absolutely beautiful with all the christmas decorations. The food was amazing, served in sophisticated surroundings with professional, curteous and friendly staff. We were part of the cinema and dine evening which we thoroughly enjoyed and made us feel very christmassy.

Four of us had a 3 course dinner here, and all of the dishes were fantastic. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

We had Sunday lunch whilst they played Jazz. The waiter was friendly & pleasant without being intrusive, the food excellent, however the beef was a little on the rare side for my niece who was celebrating her 16th birthday. The waiter kindly brought her a slice of something lovely at the end with a candle, which was a nice touch. This isn’t our first time here and have always found the ambiance almost therapeutic it’s so relaxed. This was a very pleasant way to spend a few hours, in stunning surroundings.

Having read good reviews we were a table of 6 and only 2 of us felt our food was really good. Three ordered the moules which were cold, and the chicken was passable. Overall bit disappointed with the food. Service was excellent.

My husband and I enjoyed a beautiful meal at Grey's Brasserie on Friday evening. A great choice, the food was delicious, the atmosphere relaxing and informal and the staff were excellent. Will definitely return.

Had a fabulous lunchtime meal , three course. The atmosphere was very relaxing with excellent staff. The food was beautifully presented and delicious. Yes we would definitely highly recommend the restaurant.

Niall Keating y el equipo de Whatley Manor han creado una experiencia excepcional de principio a fin.

Llegamos a la mansión por recomendación de un amigo. Trajimos a nuestros amigos que estaban de visita desde Edimburgo.

Once again excellent food in every way delicious cocktails ,superb service. Atmosphere was good ,a s always attention to detail.

We were looking for a nice place to have lunch in the country. Grey's Brasserie was easy to book less than 24 hours before and the staff were extremely accommodating when we arrived. The service was impeccable and the food was delicious, especially the dishes made with ingredients from their garden. We had a special request which was accommodated perfectly by the chef. We would definitely go back. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

The food we had was good, however the choice was limited. We both had the chicken which was lovely although tempted by the beef, but was over priced. Wine marked up by 3 times, which doesn’t make us want to return regularly. We eat out a lot locally and other hotels don’t mark up their wine this much - we paid £60 for a £15 bottle of wine, which is outrageous!

Small menu not very good for vegetarians the food was good need to have a change service was good sitting good and comfortable

Grey's Brasserie at Whatley Manor is our favourite place to dine. The location is superb, the service is fantastic and the food ranks among the best we have ever tasted, hence it being our first choice when taking family or friends out for a meal. It is perfect for a romantic dinner for two, a family occasion or a business dinner. I would also happily dine there solo. I cannot fault it in any way.

The 'set lunch' is extraordinary value - We came with friends and had very friendly service together with a lunch to remember

Unfortunately our experience didn’t live up to previous reviews.

We ate in the Green Room. It was one of the worst meals we had in the UK. We had four Waguo Beef hamburgers for our main course. We specifically asked for medium rare. What we got was a very dry extremely well done (or rather over done) small hamburger, above which was placed a fried toast with some horse radish and capers- nothing else-no vegtables, no sauce, no fries, and for this they charged 21 pounds each. The starters were OK but very small dishes. We were still hungry by the end of the meal- so we ended up stopping for a pizza (Amelphi Restaurant), which was a fraction of the price and far superior food. To be avoided.

Beautiful country house hotel, matched with first class service and delicious food. It is a place I would highly recommend.

This was the first visit to Grey's, but it certainly will not be the last. The food, service and atmosphere were all excellent.

Wonderful service and dinner. The beef and chicken were wonderful as were the desserts. I was surprised at how warm the rooms decor was....so inviting.

Two course lunch for under £20 from a Michelin starred kitchen, what's not to like. Beautiful subtle flavours, and the a la carte dises were reasonably priced as well. The dining room could be anywhere in the world, so certainly not Costwoldy. Good service, and then a stroll around the beautiful gardens. Highly recommended.

Excellent evening which followed an afternoon in the spa; with top class food and exceptional service.

We had a lovely visit to Whatley Manor for Sunday lunch. The service was fabulous, not stuffy, and the food was extremely good. We were not rushed and the staff did everything they could to make sure we had an enjoyable time. Can’t wait to go back.

We had the set price, 3 course Sunday lunch. The food was great and the staff polite, helpful and attentive. I'm sure we will return.

We highly enjoyed our light summer lunch in the charming vegetable garden at Grey's Brasserie. Excellent value at £19.50 for 2 courses or £24 for 3 - we had luminously clear broth followed by tender local chicken cooked in a light sauce of seasonal vegetables, and then could not resist the treacle tart - the best we had ever tasted as it was so deep golden. Staff were kind and helpful and we thought the whole experience was excellent.

Oh guys what a let down. I was so excited and picked Grey’s Brasserie to bring an LA film producer to show him the best of Britain. We arrived at 7.20 for a table booked for 7.30. We were shown to the Drawing Room which is beautiful. All went well - slightly surprised my ‘mocktail’ of essentially rhubarb and elderflower cost £11. Then the waiter came to take our food order at about 7:40 - we weren’t quite ready. We then waited to 9:20pm !!! And appeared to have been forgotten. In the end my colleague found a waitress and had to remind her we existed.

We were a family of ten visiting for the jazz Sunday lunch. We had to wait half an hour before the staff even acknowledged us, or asked for our drink order. The food was very unremarkable and took far too long to come out. I am NOT a food or restaurant snob and have never written a review before, but for the price we all paid, the meal and service we received was a complete let down.

Decepcionado después de haber gastado casi 60 en 4 cócteles, no se sirven aceitunas, aperitivos, etc. El almuerzo fue excelente y cada uno de nosotros eligió diferentes entrantes, platos principales y postres. Otra vez decepcionado por no haber servido dulces con bebidas después del almuerzo. Como lo mencionó un comensal anterior, todas las bebidas y los vinos eran caros, lo que aumentó un poco la factura final.

My wife and I had a lovely meal to celebrate my birthday. We came for the 3 course Sunday lunch with Jazz. We both had the sirloin beef sunday roast as the main. Everything was fantastic from start to finish. The service was attentive, the food was divine, the ambience with the Jazz was lovely. Whatley Manor's grounds are delightful and we had a lovely few hours enjoying this incredibly relaxing place. Can't recommend it highly enough.

My wife and I had lunch as part of a garden tour. The garden tour was excellent and it was really good to hear about the garden from Andy (the head gardener) and it is a lovely garden to walk around. The lunch was good (although the waiter was a bit confused) but the overall value was a bit debatable.

We have dined at Le Mazot in the past but this was our first visit to Grey’s. The meal for our daughter’s special treat was slightly disappointing as the fish option was in a mussel broth. As she is vegetarian & allergic to shellfish her only option was the asparagus & poached egg main. I chose the fish, gurnard, & it was extremely small. My other daughter, her friend & my husband were all happy with their meals.

I took my husband for a fathers day treat (minus the kids) and the set lunch was very tasty, starter was a little sparse but after the bread, main and then desert i was actually stuffed. Everything was cooked perfectly and had a lot of flavour. The staff were all very attentive. Even after id parked the car i was greeted by a member of staff to show us in holding an umbrella over us. We used the spa afterwards which was also a wonderful treat. Brilliant place to go without the children - i will be back :-)

We met friends for coffee and then Sunday lunch .There are so many beautiful places to sit and enjoy a chat with old friends without feeling you are in the way.Then on to lunch which as usual was delicious with first class service and in my case too much to eat .The gardens are superb and after such a lovely meal a perfect way to gently get a little exercise I would thoroughly recommend that you treat yourselves to this quincential English experience.

Chose Grey's Brasserie for a birthday treat. Beautiful venue, attentive staff, and the food was delicious. BUT two of us had the mackerel salad starter, really small pieces of mackerel. One of the party had the duck salad. The duck was used to wrap the vegetable element, and it was sliced really thinly, so not very much there. The theme was continued with two of the mains, the exception was the fillet beef which was a good portion. However that was £72 for two people. The desserts were also delicious but small. The bill was large.

Whatley Manor offers dining excellence in every one of its restaurants. Highly recommend you try them all.

My wife and I went for an anniversary lunch and the atmos was very suitably special. On the down side I question the chef's palette. The chicken came with an over-seasoned sauce as well as too much black garlic puree -which was probably coloured with something like olive tapenade - so was also very salty. Desert was a beautiful morsel of treacle tart ruined by a prune ice cream that didn't sit at all well with it. With simple cream (stolen from my wifes' desert) it was divine . My wifes' meal tasted fine - what there was of it - the smallest fish portion I have ever seen -. i thought the days of coming out of fine dining feeling hungry were over ! We also still think oranges have no place next to fish.

We spent a lovely evening at Whatley Manor arriving in plenty of time to wander through the beautiful gardens with a glass of champagne before heading to the Green Room to relax at the bar and watch the chef at work. We enjoyed our starters at the bar before being shown through to Greys Brasserie for our main course. The food was beautifully presented and tasted fabulous! We had originally planned to drive home at the end of the evening but decided to get a taxi instead. We made several unsuccessful attempts to book a taxi and on explaining the situation to the manager he offered to continue trying whilst we carried on with our meal. When it became clear that there were no taxis available the manager arranged for one of his colleagues to drive us home to Brinkworth at the end of the evening. That really does add a whole new dimension to going the extra mile and we were hugely grateful and impressed by the outstanding service we received. A big thank you for making our evening such a special one!

Whatley Manor is a lovely location with hotel, restaurants and spa. The facilities are good. We had a pleasant lunch on the patio on a beautiful day. Gurnard in a pea, bean and herb broth was very tasty and a fruit trifle enjoyable. However you don’t get much for you money. Drinks are particularly expensive. Service seems a little disorganised, not all staff members new what was going on.

Greys Brasserie at Whatley Manor is a stunning place to eat. The whole experience was excellent. We arrived early midweek and had a lovely alcove table.

Dinner was perfect, my husband had the special of pidgeon, absolutely fabulas. Breakfast, just perfect, such a wide choice, hard to decide. Self indulgent sour dough, avocado, smoked salmon, poach egg delicious.

Grey's Brasserie es una joya. La comida y el servicio son increíbles. No está del todo mal ventilada, pero le da un toque de lujo real en un entorno fabuloso que es mucho mejor que los restaurantes gastronómicos de los alrededores. Recomiendo hacer una tarde y pasar el rato en los jardines y el bar del hotel. El personal de la recepción es increíble, fue un año desde la última vez que estuvimos aquí, ¡pero nos recordaron! Recomiendo el Chateaubriand!

Un grupo de cinco de nosotros visitamos Grey's Brasserie en Whatley Manor para almorzar el domingo de Pascua. El menú de tres platos ofrece muy buenas opciones. Para empezar tuvimos el: cangrejo americano en brioche, remolacha con puré de fecha y nueces francas; y, salmón ahumado. Para los principales cuatro de nosotros tuvimos el Roast Beef y uno tenía la coliflor Roast. Estos vinieron con todos los adornos y una cantidad decente de verduras. Para los postres, aunque llenos, lograron degustar los Chocolates Caramelia y los Trifles de Primavera. Toda la comida era muy sabrosa y bien presentada. El servicio de todo el personal en el comedor y el salón después fue excelente, muy amable y atento.

Llevamos a los padres de mi esposo a almorzar para celebrar su 66 aniversario de boda. Un servicio muy amable e impecable por parte de todo el personal desde su recepción en el equipo de camareros. La comida era deliciosa y diferente. No es barato, pero para una comida especial parecía una buena relación calidad-precio. El entorno es precioso y los jardines también merecen un paseo. Mis suegros no han dejado de hablar de ello. Volveremos, probablemente para una visita de una noche la próxima vez!
