Rudding House in Harrogate - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

I want to say a huge huge thank you to Charlie and the team at Clocktower today for our brilliant lunch. As allergy parents, visiting somewhere new for the first time fills you with anxiety. We are so grateful for the time and attention given to us to ensure our son had the best lunch despite his multiple allergies. Desserts are off the cards 99% of the time for him and we had settled on the idea of him just having a bowl of fruit, but he was presented with a whole host of off menu treats! Meringue, vegan cream, chocolate ganache, raspberry coulis, fresh raspberries and strawberries! His smile was just amazing to see and we really appreciate the extra touches you put into place for us. (Despite what the other diners we were with may have said, that was all that mattered to us and we wanted to make sure you all knew that!)

Been to the Clocktower Brasserie today for lunch - very disappointing!! My husband's burger was served 10 minutes before my salad - he said it was mediocre.My salad was no bigger than a starter and the melon tasted funny,I told the waiter it was disappointing but he couldn't have cared. I had to ask for napkins and water - will not be back!!

We booked an afternoon tea in the conservatory and had high expectations when we walked in to the beautiful setting. Unfortunately everything went downhill from there. We were seated at a table and provided with our Prosecco, tea was ordered. Had to ask twice for milk, asked for a tea strainer, waited until tea was stewed and had to get up and get strainer myself, no teaspoons, no sugar. Waiter came and presented our3 (dry) sandwiches - no napkins on the table. The wait between sandwiches and cakes was probably around 30 mins but felt longer as we stared at empty plates, empty glasses and empty teacups and were ignored by all the staff milling around. (Of which there were plenty!) When the cake stand arrived we asked for more tea, as did the ladies at a nearby table. Theirs arrived, ours never did. We didn’t get a clean plate for desserts and had to steal spoons from another table for the mousse cake and clotted cream. Just didn’t expect this level of shoddiness at a hotel with such a reputation. Certainly would not recommend

My wife and I were treating ourselves to a meal at Clocktower Brasserie so we could use a voucher we had been given for our wedding. Local to the area, but not regulars at RP. We arrived 15 minutes early and took a seat at the bar to have a quick drink. At this point, it took the staff (who were generally very nice) at least two minutes to even acknowledge our arrival. There was only one other couple at the bar, so they were hardly overrun at this moment in time. Having gotten our drinks, we then made our way to the restaurant entrance to be seated. We were informed by one of the bar staff that someone would be with us momentarily. After a couple of minutes of standing, with no sign of someone coming to look after us, one of the waiters hurried over to again let us know someone would be with us shortly. After another minute or so, said waiter then took it upon himself to ask who we were and what room number we were staying in. We informed him we were not staying in the hotel, however, had a dinner reservation. After scurrying through the paperwork, he could not find our reservation and informed us he could clear a table in the conservatory which would be ready in a few minutes. We were instructed to sit back at the bar. The staff then made light of the situation by saying we should have never gotten up and just shouted at the restaurant when we wanted to sit down. On reflection, this all seemed a little unorganised, unprofessional, and not the premium experience I had expected. Once seated, we were then given food menus, but no wine/drinks list. This was only provided once asked for. We decided on prawns/scallops to start and cod/lamb rump for our main. Generally, the food was very nice although, herein possibly lies one of the main negative points of our experience. If you are charging £22 for king scallops, you cannot serve three measly-sided scallops with a little puree and chopped cauliflower. It just seemed like extremely poor value for money. In total, the meal, sides, and bottle of wine (£40) totaled over £200. For a midweek meal for two, this seemed excessively pricey based on the service and food we received. To put this into context, RP's new fine dining restaurant is offering midweek tables including a drink on arrival, six courses, and a drinks pairing for £120 per person. Maybe we would have been better off trying to book this experience instead. In summary, what could have been a nice evening fell short of the mark and left an unremarkable memory when thinking about whether we would recommend or return again. Sorry team RP!

Been a few years since we last visited and very impressed. The conservatory is a beautiful place to be on a sunny day and the food was simple yet excellent quality and well executed. Why not five stars?? The service was friendly but a little spotty with staff needing more training and the wine list and food could be better. Keep up the good work!

We visited the Clock Tower restaurant whilst on a dinner, bed and breakfast package at Rudding Park Hotel. The restaurant had a relaxed atmosphere and staff were very efficient, friendly and professional. The menu provided lots of choice, including options for this with dietary restrictions....

I went for Sunday Lunch with my family to celebrate my birthday and It was below average. We were a table of all women and were ignored by all the senior male members of staff who went round every single table talking to the guests...

This is a 5 star hotel with 5 star staff & facilities. The staff & facilities were fantastic. So why the 1 star? We went for the New Year event in the Clocktower, advertised as their own club for the night. The package up the...

If we exclude the event this is a 5 star hotel with 5 star staff and facilities. The staff are fantastic as are the facilities. So why the 1 star? We went for the New Year event in the Clocktower which was advertised as their own ad hoc club for the night. Well any working mans club could have put on a better event. The package up the the "club" was great. We enjoyed the afternoon tea and the spa facilities. Dinner was excellent. After dinner we were wondering where this ad hoc club was and could not believe it was just the bar. Whoever had come up with the evening did not have a clue about a club. Now we were not expecting MoS, Pacha, Hi etc but the setup was not a club. The DJ was set up so that the dance area was the walkway from reception to the other function rooms. It was not a proper dance floor and those coming back from the other functions had to navigate around those few who were dancing. The DJ could have set up further back or at right angles on the raised area he was working from ,but that was too much like common sense. Then where did they get the DJ from? We were not expecting Martin Garrix or Camelphat but at least someone who knew how to beat match,harmonic mix and be able to transition. The type of DJing you get in a proper club. All he did was ask for requests (no good club DJ would do this) and did not even organise them properly. He was hopeless - this is an example of how bad he was. He played Insomnia by Faithless still a club classic released 1995 (it was the radio edit though not a club mix, he also played it end to end - more poor technique) then announced he would then be going old skool. The next track was that great club hit (not) Cotton Eyed Joe by Rednex which was released the year before! Overall I could have done a better job with my smart phone and spotify. Would we go back yes its a great hotel and spa but not for an event.

Rudding Park has 2 great restaurants including this one. We ate as part of a large group which they catered for admirably. Everybody was impressed. Scallops are fantastic. The pork with crackling IS the best I've had ever

I Dined here with my Girlfriend on Saturday 9th December 2019.We had also dined here 4 weeks previously and i had reviewed The Clocktower but on reflection i wasnt kind enough in my review and decided to do a new one.This Visit We tried out...

A friend of ours had,given us a special voucher for afternoon tea here. We had a light breakfast at home, and no lunch, because we wanted to do full justice to our afternoon tea. As you would expect from an establishment such as this, the...

The menu choices may at first seem limited but as a "fussy" eater I never fail to find a meal which is delicious. The service is always attentive without being intrusive. I'd highly recommend.

Amazing birthday meal for my wife’s birthday I had a surprise gift for my wife and after talking with the management Charlie the manager brought the gift to the table for me Above and beyond and made my wife’s birthday amazing Thanks again amazing setting...

We booked the clock tower for our family meal and had guest visiting from all over. As we left the word on everyone’s lips was wow. The food was just outstanding , the best soup I have ever had in my life. Excellent vegan options...

Food was amazing, we enjoyed our dinner from the starter, main meal to the dessert. Delicious meal *****

Just been to Clocktower restaurant for lunch, there we’re three of us, and we all thought the food and service was first class. Would recommend.

Average experience with overpriced and underwhelming food, wine not poured and inexperienced staff. Used to be fine dining now an expensive pub option with 10% service charge added to every bill.

Our daughter bought us a voucher for afternoon tea at this restaurant, which for various personal reasons, we didn't use until nearly Christmas 2019. We enjoyed our tea so much that we decided to go for lunch as well, just before Christmas. Both meals were...

The conservatory is a pleasant option to the more formal dining room at lunchtime. It is light and bright with the (now healthy) olive tree in the centre.

We had fish & chips for lunch and traditional turkey for dinner. The kids’ menu is good. It’s a shame the turkey didn’t come with Yorkshire puddings (odd given where hotel is...) but nevertheless great. Breakfast buffet was very traditional with a good selection.

Absolutely stunning food, so delicious! Plenty of choice, and very helpful staff. Good service too, not long to wait between courses. Lovely dining room, nice and welcoming.

As part of a group of 16 people, we booked Xmas lunch here for today (Thursday 05/12/2019). We got there too early so had a drink in the bar - 1 double G&T and J2O came to £19: 25, which I felt was a little...

Myself and My Girlfriend visited The Clocktower Restaurant on Monday the 4th of November 2019.We had not been before but it had just been a Big Birthday for Her so i decided to treat Her.Luckily We have the Tastecard which gave us 50 per cent discount off all the food.Now Firstly i have to say that on the whole My Girlfriend enjoyed the meal and i thought it was ok.But Pricey and Slow service at times.We saw a couple of tables next to ours where one person in the party was celebrating a birthday as a waiter had brought each table a plate of chocolates with Happy Birthday written on in chocolate sauce,We mentioned to a waiter that it was My Girlfriends Birthday but we got nothing! In Fact You would think choosing a High end Restaurant/Hotel for a Milestone event Celebration that They would at least give you a free drink? The Food is Tasty but Pricey in My Opinion.We ate off the A La Carte menu as i think You have to when using Tastecard.And like many Dining Experiences the Bill Rises Dramatically with Drinks added.We had a three course meal each.My starter was The Liver Parfait with toast and onion chutney i had to order more toast(At no extra cost)to eat up the rest of the Parfate(Pate).My Girlfriend had a Crab starter which was small but served on a large empty plate.She said it Was Lovely though.For our mains She had the Sea Bass priced at £25.00 normal full price and i had the Clocktower Burger which was tasty priced at £18.50 normal full price i believe.For our Desserts which at full price are £9.50 each I had the 3 scoop ice cream trio and She had the Panna Cotta.At Tastecard half price of £4.75 these are fine.I had one pint of Bitter priced £4.90.My Girlfriend had a glass of wine priced £9.50 plus a bottle of different wine priced £29.50.Total Bill was £87.15 after discount of £43.25 for using Tastecard.So Normal full price would have been £130.40!! Phew!! You do get free water to drink so perhaps Come for a meal here and use Tastecard but just drink free water?There are lots of waiting staff but at times Service was Very Slow.

Upon checking in we were given an upgrade which was lovely, the spa facilities were amazing as were our massages.

If you are going to eat here, you can order anything from the menu and you will not be disappointed. The food and drinks menu is excellent and has a great variety to choose from. Staff were attentive and friendly and the venue is great for kids (Ours aged 3)

Visited the clocktower restaurant as part of a spa break weekend when staying at the rudding park hotel. The food was cooked to perfection would fully recommend having the fillet steak. Look forward to visiting again soon

Went here with Mum-in-Law and relatives over from South Africa. We have been a few times before for afternoon tea and Christmas celebrations.

We had a lovely meal in a very pleasant environment, served by attentive but unobtrusive staff

My fiancé and I visited the clock tower bar and restaurant for lunch whilst staying at the hotel for my 30th birthday and we also had breakfast there the morning of check out. The food was lovely and the staff were extremely friendly and attentive. We were absolutely ecstatic with the recommended treacle tart ice cream for a dessert! It was amazing! Would love to come back again and experience dinner here as we both felt it would be something special.

The Clocktower is a few rooms and a bar and an atrium -- which is the ideal place to dine. Food is traditional English country house fare. Service is mixed. Setting is spectacular.

Vastly over priced bar and unimaginative menu , also over priced.

Was really looking forward to drinks and afternoon tea at Rudding Park. Been meaning to go for a while but not got round to it. Reading the reviews on here I thought I would be in for a treat. Sadly not. It was a real let down.

Staff available efficient and pleasant. Food well cooked and presented. Not in any way an exotic menu for lunch, just staple classic British restaurant food. Very satisfactory.

Really lovely setting in Rudding Park hotel and Spa. It’s more posh pub food than posh restaurant but they have another restaurant for people wanting fine dining. It was exactly what we wanted at the time and we really enjoyed it.

Still waiting after 25 minutes for someone to take our desserts order. Started with wine for 8, two glasses dirty, one with lipstick stains. Such a shame the standards have fallen so low...

Always eat here when we stay at the hotel and we never struggle to find something on the menu - always cooked to perfection and impeccable service.

Another great meal last night. 6 of us dinning and the service from Akef and Kuba was faultless. Couple of new things on the menu which were great. Many thanks for a great night as usual

Had midweek 3 course lunch which could not fault and is fine dining at its best.The hotel, restaurant and grounds are stunning. Staff cannot do enough for you and make you feel a valued guest. Both 3 courses were first class and sitting in the sunny conservatory made it a lovely way to spend couple of hours. Will be visiting again!

Surroundings, staff and food just the best. Magical evening here to end our stay.

We had two lovely 3 course meals here. Fabulous food and attentive staff, whilst giving you space to enjoy your meal.

Myself along with my family visited today for lunch using travel zoo vouchers and I cannot say a bad word from start to finish. We had drinks on the terrace, moved inside to eat and then back to the library to finish our drinks and nothing was too much. The food was incredible, the drinks well paired and the service exceptional - in fact I would say this made the day. I couldn’t recommend them enough and was an absolute bargain!

My husband treated me to a birthday lunch here at the end of February!!

We had vouchers for lunch and were shown into the very tasteful conservatory with a mature olive tree in the centre. The meal was lovely and a mix up with our order was dealt with by offering to take the wine off the bill- a big saving as the wine was quite expensive.When the bill came, the wine was on it, also £4.50 or so for a bottle of water though we'd asked for tap water and over £4 per portion for veg/potatoes- a bit steep we thought. The wine was deducted and bill paid and we did feel we'd had a nice meal but would probably not become regular visitors due to the high prices and quite formal service.

The food was beautifully presented and delicious to eat ...the waiting staff simply outstanding !We were incredibly well looked after throughout our short stay of a day and night .Nothing was too much trouble cant recommend highly enough

We attended the spa at the end of last month for the supper and spa evening. The spa was fine; however, there was an issue with the supper that reflects the attitude of the spa as a whole. In the deal we had already paid for a 2 course supper. However, at the end of the meal we were issued with a bill of £10 for 2 cups of tea... £5 per cup of Yorkshire tea! This is an utterly ridiculous price and in no way should a cup of tea (without any hot water) cost this much. I proceeded to email "guest relations" about this issue directly about this. I was greeted with a patronising and dismissive response stating this price was "competitive". Competitive against whom, exactly? I have never been charged £5 for a tea bag and hot water. Besides, a tea bag, water, wages, utilities and vat should only warrant a £2.50 charge for substantial profit; I was not born yesterday. This email proceeded to state they were glad I'd had a good time at the spa itself (which was clearly not the subject of the email and demonstrated a disregard for objective criticism). As such, this reified my irration at the matter. Yes, indeed, Guest Relations, as your stated in your email, "we will have to agree to disagree".

... at London prices! The scallops to start were excellent. Venison main very good, but the aubergine was a little unimaginative. Hazelnut tart was also very good - even if a pretty small portion. All in all the meal was excellent, but the service was just too over attentive and intrusive for my liking. And the prices were just a little too over the top.

As a slightly quirky twist on our wedding day we decided to book afternoon tea at the clock tower as something different for our guests. We booked online so the hotel didn’t know this was the purpose of us turning up in our full wedding regalia!

We booked here during our stay at Rudding, as we had allocated money for it as part of the booking. All the food we had was beautiful... But when we eventually got it. The service wasn't great. We watched other people get seated around us, after we arrived, and their food and drink orders taken, when we were still waiting for our drinks order to be taken! There was also a 30-40 minute wait between our starters and mains, whilst again, we were watching people seated after us get their mains. We were in there for hours.

Beautiful ambiance and beautiful food as always. Very romantic and service is 100% 5 star.

The food in the Clocktower is a cut above the usual hotel offering with a lot of local produce, some grown on site in the kitchen garden. The style is cosmopolitan 'English' with a varied menu, plenty of choice, you are sure to find more than one dish for each course that appeals.

We were staying at Rudding park so ate here, primarily through lack of options but was pleasantly surprised. The staff were friendly and attentive and the food was very nice. There is a large price variance over the menu and I am not sure I would pay for the top end products but then, that is personal choice.

There's not one thing on this menu that isn't amazing.

Fillet steak was of an excellent quality and cooked exactly as requested. Onion rings freshly made and ordered as an extra. All came piping hot

A regular visitor most weeks for lunch or afternoon tea with a friend.Today was our first visit of the New Year. I felt I must write a review and thank the staff for the excellent service we receive without exception. The food is very good with a good choice of dishes across the menus therefore something for all tastes.

We dined in the Hotel as part of a room/dine deal. Really good quality and lovely food but service was a tad pedestrian and the price of the pudding was literally daylight robbery - about £3 a mouthful I reckon

We ate in the Clocktower Restaurant as part of the Christmas Escape package, so I cannot comment on their normal food but their Christmas food was fantastic! Great service despite large volumes of people.

Went for a birthday meal which was excellent. Nice drink at the bar before the meal. Great staff and atmosphere. Interesting and lovely menu did not disappoint. Can’t wait to return.

Came for a surprise 25th birthday meal from york got told the day before and was really looking forward to it, came the waiter knew nothing about the drinks my girlfriend's cocktail came just tasted to strong and I drink whisky neat. Sat down for food starters came out scallops cooked well but nothing to the dish my girlfriends pigeon look really nice, I ordered fillet steak my girlfriend turkey diner which came out first followed by her veg 5 mins later then my medium rare steak came out well done with what looked and tasted like frozen chip ? I later realised alot is bought in because I seen the chef taking the boxes out to te bin, so I told the waiter I asked for medium rare and there wasn't a single hint of pink left he took it back, I went to the toilet and came back to my girlfriend laughing, while I'd been to the toilet my food had been brought back very well done this time, at this point I wanted to leave and go find a McDonald's or something my girlfriend had already finished her meal and was starting to look annoyed eventually it came out, very chewy, cold chips that had sat under the hot lights but the peppercorn was nice. The worst part of this Was the way one of the managers spoke to the waiter for doing what he was told by what seemed to be a higher manager Right in the middle of the restaurant worked as a head chef for a good few years with some poor staff and never had to speak to anybody like that. This was without doubt the worst restaurant I've been to save your money and go somewhere nice in Harrogate, we left and went to find somewhere for dessert and Harrogate looks like it's full of nice places.

We often spend Friday night and special occasions in Rudding. Mainly at the restaurant since we live close by. Really enjoying the outdoor space and atmosphere during holiday season. Love their regular live music at the Clocktower bar. The Jazz pianist and sax duo are great, met them few times after dinner. Staffs are friendly and foods are high standard. We will plan for a spa day for the new year.

Been to the Clocktower few times for pre dinner cocktails and live music. Really enjoyed the Jazz performances by the pianist and sax, sometime with a female singer as well. Often see them on Friday and special occasions. With proper menu and table service. A smart casual area to meet friends and a relaxing meal if restaurant is too formal for you.

Joined my sister for christmas eve family meal was very nice the bar staff where a bit slow and got my mum's order wrong the meal was delicious but hand to wait a bit for the desserts missed mine had a bit of a wait but all worth it and followed by the church service made a lovely Christmas eve meal

Anyone who knows Rudding Park knows that in almost every area it's well run, apart one. They have never in my opinion provided a decent meal. None who lives close by eats there. The Spa. Great. Golf? Great..... but none of the neighbours eat there and the prices are terribly expensive. I try never go there but have had two invites this year. One, a Sunday lunch, simply terrible, and two, a Sunday Christmas supper which was abysmal from the frozen starter [Guinea Fowl terrine] to sloppy turkey on a frozen plate and what seemed machine factory pud.

the menu wasn't extensive, but that made it easier to choose & the food was really good. would eat here again

We ate dinner and brunch here while we were staying at the hotel, food and service was excellent. Brunch buffet had a enough variety for people staying several days at a time.

Steak cooked to perfection! Definitely try the fillet - I had it cooked medium rare and it was delicious! Finished it off with a sticky toffee pudding which was also really nice!

I have always wanted to dine in the Clocktower restaurant so I added it to my bucket list,my daughters gave my wife and I a night at the Rudding Park Hotel and Spa so I could eat at the Clocktower.First off the Staff and the Matre'd were fantastic,the service was top order,My starter was A Salmon dish with beetroot and salad very nice,the main was a Fillet Steak with skinny chips a large mushroom and salad,cooked to perfection. For my pudding as we say in Yorkshire was Ice cream and Sorbet refreshing with a Shortbread biscuit.The wine was a fine Chillean Red pricy but good.A great experience but not cheap.Breakfast next day was a large pot of coffee followed by Eggs Benedict,could not face a full English because I was still full from the night before.A great great experience!

Lunch in the conservatory, a beautiful setting, good food and attentive service. Highly recommend, it’s a bit pricey but it’s a high end hotel so I guess it’s to be expected

Stayed at Rudding Park yesterday for a spa break, we had both lunch and our evening meal in the Clocktower. We sat in the beautiful conservatory both times overlooking the gardens. All our meals were absolutely amazing and cooked to perfection. We were staying for my husbands birthday and they came out with a Happy Birthday plate and chocolates after our evening meal, which was a great touch. Will definitely return

This was part of package and was a lovely meal. The service was amazing, we just couldn't fault the whole weekend. The wine choice and veggie choice was also great.

Food and Staff are absolutely Wonderful.. If you like being spoilt, its a must!! Add a stay and you wont want to leave!!

Visited with friends. We had a really enjoyable evening. The service in the restaurant was excellent, friendly and efficient. We all ate something different and all enjoyed our food. I had the Venison haunch which was fabulous. We had relaxing pre dinner drinks in the bar area. We never felt rushed. All in all well a great visit.

Had a lovely evening celebrating 4 family members Birthdays.

It was my partners Birthday and they made a fuss of us, there was a mistake with our order but it was rectified immediatly with n fuss. It really does feel like the customer comes first....service to me is everything! The food was lovely too.

The Clocktower Restaurant is a very comfortable, serviced by very good staff and has an excellent menu of dishes, which include many ingredients grown in the Kitchen Garden within the hotel grounds. The food really is delicious.

Fantastic food and fantastic service

We ate here twice in the last week; dinner as non-residents and breakfast as residents. In between time we had really good food in the Conference Centre. Does this have a separate chef?

Called here mid week for a champagne afternoon tea-what a delight the food and the service were impeccable - what gorgeous soft sandwiches - plus an array cakes plus Scones with Jam & cream - we loved the setting- weather wasn’t up to sitting on the terrace but we had a good walk art& will definitely return for both the Spa as well as a Food & Flicks evening - highly recommend

We stayed at the hotel on the sleeping beauty package but found the food lacking. We went expecting amazing things due to the other reviews and the fact is has 2 AA Rosettes but it fell very short.

The service is impeccable and the food is to die for. Nothing is too much trouble and great for special occasions!

Absolutely stunning. The atmosphere, staff and food excellent. Please ignore the negative staff reviews as we found each and every staff member exceptional. Thank you for a wonderful experience

Our meal in the Clocktower restaurant was part of a deal and we had £41 allowance each which was ample for both of us to have 3 courses (obviously depends what you choose off menu).

We stayed at the hotel overnight and had dinner in the restaurant the food and sevice were excellent

What a fabulous bistro restaurant this is, excellent food, excellent staff, all served in a beautiful setting. Can’t recommend the restaurant enough!

We've had the pleasure of dining at Clocktower Restaurant twice recently; once for Sunday lunch and secondly for a pre-wedding family meal. On both occasions the food was excellent and service first class. The menu offered had plenty of choice and catered for vegetarians. Thoroughly enjoyed our visits.

Wow, wow from an excellent main meal to a beautiful chocolate and avocado pud. One of the best meals I have had for a very long time! Well worth a visit if your vegan! This place should be your vegan go too luxury treat!

My partner & I went for lunch on a Travel Zoo voucher, which consisted of 3 courses & a glass of prosecco each.

Celebratory meal with a former colleague. Had booked on their recommendation and previous good experience there, but prices seem to have risen somewhat since then...

I have reviewed the evening menu a couple of times as i have stayed regularly at Rudding for around 6 years.

Called here yesterday approx 5pm

Have a lovely breakfast,plenty of things to choose from and also have an option to either order to be served or do self service. Excellent staff service. Thumbs up for all.

Mariynmm was spot on with her review - this has become a very pretentious place with staff who seem to judge very quickly. They also have very little personality.

We enjoyed a three course meal and the food could not be faulted at all. Will definitely recommend to anyone visiting the area or staying at the hotel!

Have had afternoon tea here for sometime! Love the new look sandwiches and beautiful cakes.

We visited this restaurant whilst staying in the hotel to celebrate our golden wedding anniversary and were not disappointed.

Booked as a birthday treat for a family member( also birthday gift was a voucher for an experience at the hotel ) . Staff and food as always excellent.

Popped into this wonderful hotel as I have on and off for 30 years and can only say the clock tower bistro is in danger of disappearing up its own trouser leg!!!

This was my third visit to this restaurant and each time it has exceeded my expectations. The staff are superb, and very willing to assist. The menu choice is very good and the food quality is excellent. There was sufficient gap between courses to allow for digestion and conversation alike. Overall a very good place to eat.

Was treated by the family for Father’s Day surprise afternoon tea. What a lovely place and great staff. The little touches meant so much .... staff really spoiling us ... delicious beer cake ... and fab wines. We will be back very soon, for another treat as we really enjoyed the food. Thank you!

Ate in this restaurant for the evening meal. Wonderful food and attentive service. Nothing was too much. W ate off both the A La Carte menu and the set. All the food was cooked to perfection. Would highly recommemnd.
