The Brasserie At Calcot in Cotswold - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Both dinners at this restaurant were really disappointing. Simply put, for what you have to pay, the food just isn’t up to standard compared to similarly priced restaurants. One evening I ordered the chicken - the portion was small and it was dry. It’s difficult to not cook chicken properly but unfortunately this restaurant managed it. The hake and monkfish were were also overcooked. After speaking to other guests, they echoed similar thoughts. I have to say the overall stay/spa/gym was lovely and the grounds are beautiful, however this restaurant is really letting the venue down. Please listen to feedback and make improvements to really make Calcot Manor an unforgettable experience.

A visit to “ The Hive “ formally “ The Gumstool Meeting family for a coffee … Very relaxing , comfortable seating areas . Great coffee and lovely staff .

This restaurant continues to disappoint. We have visited far less often in recent years but visited today for the first time in a while. The staff were all very pleasant and the food when it eventually came was good quality. But the whole process was so painfully slow on what appeared to be a fairly quiet evening in the restaurant. If you can't serve customers food in a reasonable time consistently, you will struggle. We're not particularly interested in courses being given free of charge or the offer of free drink. What we prefer is great food, served at a reasonable intervals with pleasant friendly service. Food 👍 Service 👍 Timings 👎

This review is regarding The Hive, formerly The Gumstall Inn at Calcot spa. We got married there in 2010 and decided to pop back for a glass of wine. The place is beautiful, charming, chilled and after the refurbishment in April the feel is very different from when we were there in 2010, but lovely, service very attentive, polite and quality of everything fabulous, as we expected. What we didn't expect was a standard £4.00 service charge on top of the £31 for 2 glasses of wine and some olives (very nice they were too)! Feel like it ruined the experience for us to be honest, which is a real shame as everything else was great. Just feel that £4 was an unnecessary addition to what was an expensive treat anyway.

We Came to Calcot for a delicious afternoon tea served by an excellent and friendly waitress, hazel, you could tell everything on the stand was home made and delicious and the setting in the restaurant is perfect

We went to the Brasserie for my birthday dinner. We were a group of five and we were all very happy with our choices of food. They didn’t take long to bring the entries and whole dinner ran in a very good pace. The waiters although young were very able and professional. I guess they overheard any mention of my birthday and brough me a surprise: a bowl with 3 scoopes of ice cream with a message writen with chocolate. I was very touched. The night was very pleasant.

No where as good as it use to be starters where the best part if the Sunday lunch the roast dinner was by far not the best with baked on gravy on the plate skinny beef well over cooked no checking on by staff to see if all ok I think either the chef has changed or he had a day off since the Gumstool has gone this is the 2nd meal in this restaurant we have had and was not good

Whilst not the most extensive menu, the food and service were excellent. After a number of visits to Calcot, over the years, it never fails to deliver.

The brasserie has relaunched (previously the restaurant at Calcot); decor is tasteful and looks the same as previous - nice and light and airy, looking over the grounds etc. We had afternoon tea which we felt was good value vs other places. Everything was tasty and well presented but so sweet heavy - only 3 finger sandwiches and then double scones, cakes etc. More sandwiches or a savoury item would be nicer. The children’s afternoon tea was cute but didn’t differ much to the adults - simpler cakes like the simpler sandwiches would be nice ? The inclusion of a milkshake was nice though. Also we booked for the kings coronation weekend and there were no decorations or even reference to it on the tea, which seemed a missed opportunity. Service was friendly but slow.

Met my sister for lunch here. Had a great time with fantastic service, with tasty and well presented food. The lunch menu was delicious with a nice variety. Dinner menu looks good also
