The Orangery at RH England in South Northamptonshire

We booked a table for 2.30. We arrived on time only to be told that the table was not ready. We waited for 20 minutes only to be told they’re’ on desserts and we can’t hurry them’ When I asked about gluten free options I was told there was no bread; the booking was made well in advance and so again I was less than impressed. I was then told I could have a salad, but when I looked at this on the menu it contained soy, which is made from wheat. The building was beautiful but I was very disappointed by the service in the restaurant and the lack of knowledge regarding ingredients, particularly at a time when many suffer from food allergies.

If you've ever been to Las Vegas you might be familiar with the experience of arriving at a Hotel or restaurant and experiencing 'wow' moments as you drink in the environment, have your car valet parked and then get served by the most hospitable staff you can imagine at every moment during your stay.Only later you realise that the lunch or dinner you ordered was at best mediocre. Thats how it felt at this beautiful location. This is the sort of experience that is rare in the UK, so it's well worth visiting for the uniqueness of the place.Look past the prices for what is only mediocre food.They've got to pay for the building and staff somehow!

Just stunning. Beautifully lit up and we were met by gentlemen holding umbrellas who escorted us to the entrance. The interior design ideas were stunning and beautifully displayed. Enjoyed tea in the Orangery served by a charming waitress. TQ for our visit.

This exclusive house, gardens and restaurant is worth more than a visit. The restaurant is a delight with a streamline menu. The food is first class quality as is the service. It is an experience with valet parking, a more than helpful welcome, courteous without being overwhelming. Ambiance superb for all occasions. As a critical eye I found little to fault it. Pricey but great value, one not to miss!

We came here for our wedding anniversary and from the moment we arrived we were greeted warmly and had a wonderful experience. The setting is amazing and the food yummy. Of course it is pricy but worth every penny for a special occasion.

My husband surprised me with dinner at the Orangery to celebrate our anniversary. We’ve had our eye on the renovations for a few months now and were absolutely delighted with the opportunity to experience it. Dinner at the Orangery was just as much about the experience as it was the delicious food. We enjoyed a relaxing dinner with a beautiful view which included watching a herd of deer grazing just outside. Our server Miriam was very friendly and attentive and her food recommendations were perfect. We would go back!

The newly-opened RH England venue is completely unexpected, innovative and absolutely stunning. It's essentially a furniture store with restaurants, although that description doesn't do it justice. After a good look around the house (allow an hour) we ate in the Orangery. The menu is somewhat limited and lacked credible starter options (avocado with caviar at £55 doesn't fulfil my concept of credible!) but there is just about enough choice to satisfy most people including vegetarians. Recommend checking the menu online if you are not sure it will suit. The wine list was OK with the (generous) glass list at around £9-12 from memory. For mains I had a whole branzino with truffle fries and my wife an innovative and delicious mushroom vegetarian dish. Butterscotch creme caramel dessert was to die for and the banana split would have served two. With 12.5% service the overall bill was around £140, a little on the high side but this isn't a place where you go for bargain basement anything! Saving the best until last, the service was amazing and as good as I've had in any upmarket restaurant anywhere in the world. Well done!

Beautiful venue and excellent service, the staff were friendly, helpful and attentive. Sadly the food in the Orangery was incredibly over priced and mediocre. Salad starters, burgers in a ciabatta roll with a handful of rocket, side of roasted peppers, Creme brûlée and soft drinks - £100 per head.
