The Adderley Restaurant in North Warwickshire

My sister had booked an afternoon tea for the three of us as it was our anniversary. We were so looking forward to it as we had been here sometime before and it was lovely. But times have changed. We were seated in quite a soul less room which had a large and distracting, television. The staff I h!ave to say were very good and attentive. The afternoon tea when it came was disappointing, there was no wow factor and looked very meagre. Because I am a veggie I had my own cake stand and one less sandwich than my carnivore companions. The shot glass with a cream concoction was lovely but the spoon given is too big to go into the glass. The cakes tasted very nice but there was nothing special about them, a thin slice of madeira, a thin slice of brownie and a minute offering of flap jack. The shortbread biscuit was nice though. The scones resembled biscuits and were quite hard. Clotted cream was nice though. All in all not an unpleasant afternoon but not nice enough to tempt me back again.

Lovely place for couples or even a family gathering. Great food, spoilt for choice. Lovely place to stay too.

Ate here yesterday (sunday) and I must say we enjoyed every moment of it. The food was lovely, and I liked the dishes that the vegetables came in. I do like cheesy cauliflower yum.. The only thing that I will say which is a negative was the other guests that were dining. There were 2 medium size tables, probably about 10 in total, could've been a few more with them, that I would say spoiled the experience for us. They seemed to be quite rude towards the staff, whom I must say worked very hard and very professional. Im pretty sure that I saw one of the gentleman on one of the tables clicking his fingers for attention, whilst two of the staff were serving food at another table. I just found that very rude indeed. The staff do not need to be treated in such a way. I could hear them muttering to each other about how they would be complaining. One even said that they will be sending a formal email. I would just like to pint out, that whomever reads this review, doesn't listen to a word they say, because I believe there will be a few tall tales. Anyway, ending the rant there, food was delicious, staff were great which matched the service. We will definitely be coming back in the near future, just hipefully, not with those guests in attendance. Keep up the good work. M

Went to a presentation in one of the large rooms, room was lovely.The service was good staff friendly and helpful but so disappointed with the food soup was very watery with no taste small bread was hard , I had the lamb could not eat it fatty and stringy (a man on the table even had the string around the meat ) veg was hard the little you had ,roast burnt,and swimming in gravy,sweet was no better .Been before and had lovely meals sadly not this time .

Booked a table to eat here in the restaurant but what a let down. After pulling up outside the hotel it looked like a dark run down place. We got inside to the reception and no-one was there or anywhere around to greet us or give the way to get into the restaurants so we just had to choose a way to walk. The corridors looked like a construction site as the walls were just plaster and boarded doors. We found The Adderley restaurant and let me tell you it looks nothing like the pictures provided. It was small, dim and basically looked and felt just a room with tables and chairs laid out to try and look like a restaurant. I was very tempted to go (as two other people did when we were waiting for our food) but I thought to stay as the food was mainly why we come as the menu sounded nice.The waitress was the only good thing, well mannered and always making sure to see if everything was OK with the drinks and food. The food you only had to blink and it was gone the portions were so small after we ate we had to get a takeaway as it felt like we didn't even eat. Wouldn't have minded that the portions were small if the food was like Michelin/tasty meals but it was too basic. Overall I would not recommend.

family went to a sunday lunch, it was on offer £14.99 but when we got the menu there was supplement on each of the courses didn't expect that when booking thought would be set price

The quality of the food at dinner was excellent. Deliciously soft and buttery scallops, nice steak (although not the best quality so cooking it medium rare was a bit of a struggle) and the best cheese board I've had, loved the chutney and the quality of the cheese. My wife's lamb shank also was very nice with a nice sauce. So why only 4 out of 5? Service and breakfast.... Wasn't offered a wine list, we took some drinks through from the bar but still should have been asked. Service was slow and you can tell the staff were inexperienced which I don't mind but it did make it awkward at times such as the waiter trying to open wine with a traditional corkscrew, he struggled and I wanted to assist (just give him the easier type corkscrew, does anybody mind these days?). Took ages to then get a dessert menu and the more experienced waitress took over. If I'm in the area again I'd definitely go to the restaurant but I wouldn't bother with breakfast, a miserable lady showed us to the table and food wasn't being replaced quickly enough. 4* hotel restaurant but not 4* service

We were booked in on a Winter Warmer break which included an evening meal We were told how it worked and were pleased with reception for giving us an explanation But it was not what we were told as we sat down for our meal . So that was confusing We had to wait for some time for our drinks and when they came they were wrong . We ordered our food and my steak was grisly and mildly warm and my green beans were cold and the chips ( I'm not sire what they were but they were also mildly warm and very greasy as if they had been soaked in something like a gravy ) Char-grilled sirloin steak, roast vine tomato, French beans, choron sauce, our chips ? What does our chips mean ? The chips on the table next to our looked crisp and golden The bacon roll at lunchtime was pretty average after quite a long wait the roll was actually toasted and burnt I was asked if it was alright I said it wasnt as the roll was burnt I was asked if I wanted another roll I said no as we had already waited for almost 30 mins for the first one to arrive Not impressed on this visit at all No apology from anyone which is really disappointing

The lamb was cooked perfectly tasty and well presented and the service was very good. I would recommend eating in when staying at the hotel.

Me and my partner were too Ill to go out New Year's Eve so thought we'd treat ourselves to a nice meal out to make up for it and what a treat it was!! The food was simply amazing and the service faultless! We were greeted with a lovely smile by a young lady who showed us to our table (unfortunately i don't remember her name) and told a gentleman called Aaron would be our waiter for the evening but asked in the meantime if she could get us any drinks. The drinks came promptly and the sauvignon blanc one of the best I've tasted. The menu was plentiful and something to suit all tastes. Me and my partner both went for the tomato and cheddar tart to start and I went for the blade of beef for main and my partner the lamb rump, I cannot even explain how delicious it was! It's been a very long time since we've both enjoyed a meal so much! After the meal we were both stuffed but couldn't pass up the opportunity to try one of the lovely desserts, we both went for the sticky toffee pudding and again were not disappointed! Throughout the whole evening Aaron was attentive and made sure our glasses were full. Our bill came to just under £80 which for what we had was exceptional value and will definitely be returning again! Thanks again for a wonderful evening!

Really nice quality food, well presented (ask them to explain in detail what you will get with some of the menu items!

I enjoyed a meal at this restaurant whilst staying at the hotel. The food was very well presented and tasty, and the staff helpful and efficient, explaining the items on the menu with which i was not familiar.

Both the food and service were brilliant - we ordered most things from the menu, being a large wedding party, and could not fault a thing!

Catering for around 40 people this weekend, the Adderley Restaurant was a fantastic venue with lovely food, considering the number. We were given a side room, which we could decorate beforehand and pre-selecting off a menu allowed a really smooth service.

Beautifull food, beautifull place. a evening was ruined by a very horrible customer service. Went back to the restaurant because everything was amazing first time in, this time around wasn't the same. You member of staff should make us feel welcome not make us feel that we don't belong there, we felt discriminated and very uncomfortable when she brought us the bill as soon as we start our meal. I felt embarased.... something that we will take actions

Food in this restaurant was lovely the service was excellent the presentation was excellent cannot fault it

The menu had a reasonable choice of options, i had the Duck which really hit the spot. the addition of a couple of little extras between courses was a really welcome and pleasant surprise. the only issue was the cost of the wine, even by restaurant standards it seemed pretty high. overall a very pleasant experience

Nos dieron una comida en el restaurante adderley por nuestros hijos como un regalo de aniversario.

La comida era muy buena, había reservado en un paquete. Lo único que tengo que decir es que la bebida era caro una botella de Brancott Sauvignon (Estate) £37.00, parecía un poco cara para nosotros

we had Sunday lunch in the restaurant (12/06/16) and my wife and I were joined by our two son's and their girlfriends. we had starters and main course and both the food and service were very good. better still at £14.95 per head, great value.

Went to a wedding reception here and it was a wonderful place~ food was excellent & plenty of it ~ drinks a bit on expensive side but all in all a good place for a reception.

We were married at Lea Marston in 2013 and now visit on a regular basis.The service and food are always great. The menu changes on a regular basis which is nice and the staff are very knowledgeable. Would highly recommend

My mother and I visited this restaurant due to the fact the Ryder Grill @ the Belfry couldn't fit us in.....what a great opportunity, went to the Adderley, spot on staff, spot on food and spot on service. I would recommend this restaurant to all.

Freshly prepared delicious food, promptly presented without trying to rush us. The young staff are well motivated and all have a lovely attitude. They have obviously been trained in the art of restaurant serving. We are looking forward to our next visit.

The food was excellent and plenty of choice on the menu. We had 3 courses and there were 18 of us, we were not kept waiting, the staff were friendly and helpful

Efficient service but only average food, a bit of a shame as the rest of the facilities including the spa very good

This is our first visit and initially we were pleased with the service and style of the restaurant but there's no windows and rather drab. The menu both al a carte and fixed were disappointing with very little variety. The lamb was delicious and the chicken succulent but it is very expensive for what it is and we will not be visiting again.

I would like to agreee with the review left on 17 July. We felt exactly the same. We have eaten here on many occasions, and nearly always for Christmas day lunch and never had cause for complaint. We went for Sunday lunch 27th September and for the first time ever left wishing we had gone else where, Our booking was for 2.30 but it felt like they had already wound down for the day, there were untidy tables and just two staff. The menu was appalling, I don't eat red meat but I'm not a vegetarian the other choice was sea bass, hmmm, although upon request they kindly did me a chicken breast. The bread rolls looked and tasted cheap shop bought and the cream of leak and potato soup tasted watered down,actually no cream in it. The main meals were very nice and hot with a selection of vegetables. I opted for the cheesecake for dessert, luckily it was the smallest dessert I have ever had because it was tasteless, although the chocolate brownie was nice. Needless to say we didn't stay for coffee. I can't believe we experienced a meal like this at Lea Marston Hotel, maybe the restaruant manger needs to up his/her game a bit as this was shoddy.

Good restaurant, menu was varied and not to expensive. Set menu or al la carte which I opted for. Also breakfast is served in this room if your staying at the hotel overnight, which was also very good for the price.

Well worth a meal here. Ours was included in the room rate otherwise would have been more than we would normally pay.

Very smart restaurant staff are very Friendly, however was disappointed with the bland Sunday lunch , we had salmon and pork the crackling was no bigger than a ear bud, the veg was very bland , the salmon was plain and simple , the starter was a child's portion of melon. The best part of the meal was the dessert .

This is a beautiful hotel which I have visited on a variety of occasions as both a diner and spa customer. The staff here are so friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble. I wanted somewhere special to book for both mine and my 7 year olds birthday lunch with family - so Lea Marston seemed like a good choice. In total there were 15 of us.A three course Sunday lunch is priced at £16.95 for adults and £8.95 for children which isn't cheap but we didn't mind as it was special occasion and on previous visits the meals had been delicious. Unfortunately, on this occasion this wasn't to be the case! I think you always feel more disappointed if its a venue that you've recommended and it doesn't quite live up to the review you've given it - that was me on Sunday.I know this sounds petty but previously the bread rolls on the table appeared to be home made, some brown with seeds, some plain etc. A wide range of choices. On Sunday we had bread rolls that appeared to have come out of packet, very small white baps.The starters were fine ... I had a chicken and asparagus tart which was "just warm" but tasty. The prawn cocktail came without any bread but the melon was a real hit with the kids as it looked the part shaped like a flower. we were one missing which we had to wait for.Then came the main courses, there was plenty of vegetables and potatoes but unfortunately, again the food was on the cold side and didn't look fresh. One of the guests did ask for his to be warmed up which they very kindly obliged. The beef seemed a real hit. The ham not so much so - very dry and stringy. Dessert was probably the best course and everybody seemed to agree - the sticky toffee pudding was amazing.The waitresses were brilliant, very attentive and helpful but I think being the last table to eat went against us. It just didn't seem fresh. I'm not saying don't go here - I have had some great meals here in the past. I would however suggest that you book earlier than we did - we sat down at ten to two.The hotel is clean, service is amazing and the overall feeling of luxury is great.Not a cheap day though as the wine/drinks were expensive.

Very nice presentation of the dishes. The duck bonbon is a bit dry and lacked a bit of flavour. Overall not too bad.

I booked a table for two in the restaurant for a special Birthday & so glad I did !The food was sooo nice & the attention to detail by the staff made a real change, polite & very professional in their manner.If you want food piled high & cheap then microwaved ?Then I suggest you go elsewhere !This is where you go if you require real fresh food full of flavour.I spent £65 on a three course meal for two including drinks & left feeling totally satisfied with the whole experience & will happily return in the future. Well done to you !

From front of house to preparation and delivery of my food, all exceptionally good. The waiting staff were attentive and friendly.

Had a lovely meal in lovely surroundingsStaff were very pleasant and couldn't do enough for youAll in all beautiful

Although the hotel doesn't look very impressive from the outside, the restaurant is very nice.Staff are polite, friendly and very professional.Food super with added value courses thrown in which really added to the experience.Could have done with more sauce on the mains but other than that, all lovely and great value for money.

Excellent customer service. Special thanks to Emma and Adele who made us feel very welcome and made our meal special. Food was good service excellent.

Loved it all Food fab staff lovely and pool/spa relaxing can,t wait for our next weekend away at Lea Marston

The food and service was excellent. It is not an extensive menu and at the higher end of pricing. The surroundings are very nice and relaxing and the staff could not be more helpful.

We booked a table for a birthday meal, so glad we did. The service from the staff was so attentive and polite. The food was Lovely, hot and plenty of it. Hats off to the staff and management for making the birthday celebration special. We will be back.

We went here the other night for celebrations... The restaurant is smart with friendly staffThe menu has some exciting ideas but are not necessarily delivered perfect on the plate... Some parts were cold! We did however get a beautiful salon amuse Bouche and some lovely hand made chocolates at the end of the meal... So lots of extra little treats.I do think it was a little expensive for the quality of the food... But perhaps it was just a dodgy night for them... I would go back again soon but only for special occasions

Great choice of quality food.All freshly prepared.Wine choice not badGood waitress service with nothing being too much trouble

Can't fault the Adderley for Sunday lunch. If you like a roast you will enjoy it here. Fresh vegatables and quality meat.Adequate wine list, comfortable seats and above average tableware. Staff and service excellent.

After reading other trip advisor reviews I took my wife for dinner to celebrate our wedding anniversary, we choose from the fixed price menu, the food was of a very high standard, we couldn't fault any of our 6 dishes, if you include the little extras they kept bringing it was almost a 6 course menu! The staff had been trained very well, the only thing that that could be improved is the room it's self, the lighting was rather bright, but to have this food and service in a 300 year old character hotel, will cost you almost double our £80 bill that included a nice bottle of red.

Took my wife for a meal out on a Friday night. The atmosphere is a little bland due to its location inside a hotel/spa complex, but it's quiet and well presented, which is more than can be said for a lot of places. The service is excellent. The food is very good, well presented, and cooked to a high standard. Nothing overly inventive, but a sensible variety without being a cumbersome and bland menu. The complementary tasters are a lovely touch - some better than I've had in a Michelin restaurant. The meat courses are very well cooked. The risotto was particularly tasty. The prices are mid - range and nothing that would dent the overdraft! Overall a pleasant and professional restaurant that's perfect if you want to avoid eating in town. My wife would eat there again, which is the biggest compliment I can give!

Excellent food, attentive staff and value for money. Beautiful surroundings and incredible little extras (tasters) before and after dinner that we didn't expect. Will defiantly be back!!

Sunday lunch for 10. Excellent food and service well worth the visit. Reasonable priced Sunday lunch food delivered on time for us all.

I was very nervous about going to dinner here it came part of our over night package, but being a women who is shall we say a bit common :) I wasn't sure i would fit in well, but i was pleasantly surprised, again nothing was to much trouble for the staff polite from moment we arrived, and well the food was just AMAZING! Salmon was cooked to perfection and beef just melted in your mouth. 1st class service, 1st class food.Will certainly be back.

3 courses of great food with some added extras - ordered off the 'set menu'. We can definitely recommend the salmon starter, salmon and risotto main, and the fruit platter and tiramisu. Fab service. Good value. No complaints!!

But NOT 4 star in my opinion, a great buffet restaurant but not quite there . Staff attentive and polite enough, it just wasnt quite 4 star

The choice of menu and the quality of food within the Adderley was excellent. The Waiters and Waitresses were very accommodating.

Food service and the decor. The venue was great the food was excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful. We had a problem with the internet and not having a fridge in the room was inconvenient but overall the stay was better than average. The quality of the food was wonderful and the staff were very friendly and efficient. Great time!!

We had a meal with colleagues a total of 15 people. the food was very well presented and everyone enjoyed what they had. Presentation was very good and value for money was great! We will definitely be eating hear again!!

The daily set menu offered great choice at each course. The food was imaginatively presented and freshly prepared. The flavours were delicately combined with a range of colours and textures. Staff were relaxed and friendly but very attentive with nothing being too much trouble. I would definitely return to the Adderley Restaurant next time I am in the Lea Marston area.

We stayed here for our anniversary. Had a pleasant stay and the staff were friendly. Both breakfast and dinner was of high quality providing something different and plenty of choice. We had a huge room with spacious seating area which was clean and tidy. Had a wonderful time. Highly recommended. :-)

After struggling to find an appropriate venue for a birthday party, I came across Lea Marston and the Adderley Restaurant. Took a look at trip advisor as well as their website, had a quick Google street view, and all seemed well. The photo's looked great and so did the bar. Booked it thinking I had finally sorted a decent venue.How I was so wrong. On arriving to the venue, I was quick to realise that the building that I thought we were going to on Google streetview, was in fact residential (my mistake) and that the actual venue where we would be eating, was nothing more than a 'premiere inn' type of building. So instantly, not the setting I was expecting - no wonder they have no actual photo's of the building on their website.On entering, there were further disappointments, let's just say the photo's do a very good job. And the one detail you'll complete miss on the photo's, is the lack of air conditioning. None. Apparently it was on but 'struggling'. It was like sitting in a steam room. Coke served was flat, on three occassions before they realise that there was a problem with the system. Food is presented well, but has no substance. Lack of atmosphere and overal a complete disappointment. Avoid at all costs. There are plenty of other decent places too eat with much nicer settings.

Dinner - Wonderful food with great service and good value as part of a package deal. Breakfast is Fantastic with so much choice of first class food. Really set us up for the day.

Can't fault it. Great food and great service. Went for the fixed price menu but still had a great choice. Food is chosen in the bar area prior to being shown to your table. Food was superb, wine wasn't too expensive, nice atmosphere.

The staff are always fine but this is the first time I've visited and had to wait nearly an hour for the main course and there was only 3 of us. We had no starters and it was not very busy at all. My business meeting had been at the Belfry Hotel and golf course and the only reason we did not stop for lunch was due to the time we would have had to wait. SOD'S LAW comes to mind!!!

We would like to thank all the staff for making our Christmas Day Dinner so memorable.It was lovely, and i would recommend Lea Marsdon Hotel to anyone.The staff were very polite and saw to our every need. We have been going there for 5 years now, and have never been disapointed, by the meal or the staff. Thank you all for a lovely day.

Imaginative food served in a friendly professional manner.No rush in a relaxed atmosphere.Smiling friendly staff.I enjoyed the whole experience.

Food in the Lea Marston hotel is of a very high standard - but you will have to wait quite a while for it to arrive.

Lets start with the positives, the staff are very friendly and welcoming and the service was good and the restaurant and bar area was nice. This restaurant has been awarded 2 AA rosettes. I've never been to a restaurant where I received a dish completely different to what was stated on the menu. Two of my party of 4 ordered the Confit duck, pear puree, mesculin salad starter. Instead we were actually served what is best described as a duck terrine, you could hardly taste the duck when it should be the star of the show. The mesculin salad should be mixed baby salad leaves, we had 4 leaves all the same variety. Sticky toffee pudding nice but not warmed through properly. I did explain to the waiter that I felt the menu was misleading. Lamb ok

A bit dark, a bit close to other tables, but food very good. Staff good, reasonable portions, nice presentation.

tasty well presented food, welcoming and professional staff making the experience more special. lovely modern setting. No pressure to finish meal and each course served at our pace.

Just excellent food but at pretty reasonable prices. Young attentive staff. very pleasant all round!

The food in the restaurant is lovely. Really well cooked and very good service.

Lovely meal, right size portions and good food, oly spilt a bit by slow service. However the place WAS RAMMED! Which is most likely a good sign

Food was OK but nothing to write home about. Staff at reception were ignorant and ill informed.

Presentation of food very good and service was outstanding

Menu just perfect for when you are staying away on a business trip. Choices are pretty much what you find in most hotel restaurants, but the quality was very good.

New Years Eve is always tricky because a lot of people have to be fed quickly. This restaurant managed it perfectly and the food was really good. The dessert was exceptional. We were really impressed. The staff were quietly efficient and were all smiling and very helpful. We have also eaten in the bar at lunchtime and that was excellent. Highly recommended.

Sunday lunch here is excellent value even without the 3 Course pay for two offer. How ever saying that the food is very bland, tasteless and cold. The beef served yesterday was inedible. It was explained they had changed their meat supplier for the beef and our comments would be noted. If the food quality matched the service and surroudings of the restaurant then this would be the perfect place to eat. Staff are very professional, helpful and polite they make you feel very welcome including children and small babies. They can cater for large family groups with ease. The restaurant has a very calm chilled feel about it and is very relaxing place to eat and chatter with family and friends. Just a pity the food is forgettable.20% was taken off the bill for those who had the beef dinner.

The service, setting, cleaniness and food is second to none at such as reasonable price, me and my wife love eating here so much we booked my wives 30th Birthday celebration here.

Il servizio e' abbastanza veloce ma la qualita' del cibo (abbiamo cenato a base di pesce) veramente scarso.Vino di scarsa qualita' ma abbastanza costoso.Il rapporto qualita' prezzo non e' sicuramente dei migliori. La pulizia del tavolo non era certamente dei migliori. Abbiamo cenato ad un tavolo dove avevano appena finito altre persone e la pulizia e' stata fatta in modo sommario. La cosa curiosa e' che vi erano altri tavoli liberi e gia pronti ma ci hanno voluto far accomodare a quello forse per suddivisione fra camerieri.

wide choice of properly cooked quality food accompanied byexceptional service

Just a lovely restaurant atmosphere, we didnt eat in there but looked lovely we ate in hadaways which was lovely.

Went to the Adderley restaurant last night to celebrate our wedding anniversary. This is an annual event as we also got married there. We were given a small appetiser to start with - smoked salmon with lemon aioli which was delicious and then we were given a bowl of bread and olives. My God, I thought. I haven't even had my starter yet. I chose the rabbit and bacon terrine followed by the king prawn risotto. Both were absolutely beautiful and the staff were very attentive and knowledeable about the dishes on the menu. I would definitely return, hopefully before my anniversary next year.

We went for a family celebration to this restaurant in Lea Marston hotel. The restaurant is nice enough,with a good atmosphere and the serving staff were fantastic,all very friendly and chatty. The food was nice but nothing that amazed me and made me think it deserved 2 AA rosette's,certainly not the best 2 rosette restaurant out there. The bar area where we sat for a drink before the meal was swamped with wedding guests and we had to wait about 20 minutes to get a drink. Overall everyone had a good night and most people in the party were happy with the experience.
