The Fat Duck - (Near Berkshire, South East)

5 /5 Roxy Hull: There are no words to describe the experience. Without a doubt, one of the most incredible nights of our lives! The staff were incredibly attentive, I was full of cold and they recommended the olive tea to make me feel better, which it did! We loved how their individual personalities shone through, which is different from other high end restaurants where the staff are almost told to all act the same? Danny in particular, made our evening! The food was innovative and a real experience, there are no words! My mind is still boggled from all the different flavours and textures! We would absolutely love to come back soon!

5 /5 André Nesheim: What an experience. We were a group of friends who had wanted to try The Fat Duck for a long time, and it absolutely lived up to our expectations. As the restaurant is located a little outside London, we took the train well in advance to avoid being late. We were in contact with the restaurant beforehand and were kindly told that we were welcome to arrive early if we wished. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly received. The setting is discreet and calm, and you immediately feel a sense of anticipation building. What followed was nothing short of a fairytale of an evening. The waitstaff were exceptionally knowledgeable and genuinely warm, sharing not just information but themselves. The sensory experience and flavors are unlike anything you can fully prepare for. Not every flavor will be for everyone, but that’s on me and my admittedly selective palate — I still fully understand and appreciate the experience for what it is. We also opted for the drinks pairing, which was outstanding. Our sommelier, Raku, was fantastic and guided us expertly through the evening. Tom, with his infectious energy and great sense of humor, took wonderful care of us and topped off the night by showing us the kitchen and introducing us to the people behind the magic. Unfortunately, I don’t remember the names of everyone who contributed to making this such a special evening, but I want to thank them all. They are what truly made the night memorable — and the reason I already want to return.

5 /5 Selina Zhang: A truly special dining experience! We came for a birthday celebration and it did not disappoint. We love his Dinner restaurant in Knightsbridge so we were very excited for this restaurant. We had the tasting menu, as you can imagine, each dish was super creative and fun. The food still tasted amazing and wasn’t ‘style over substance’. The service was also amazing, each person we spoke to so kind and friendly and happy to have a chat. I would recommend going earlier during dinner service if you can. The tables around us joined later and were getting ‘spoilers’ for each course from other tables.

5 /5 Romina Luisi: We visited The Fat Duck on Sunday, January 11th to celebrate our anniversary, and it was an experience we will never forget. Calling it “dinner” doesn’t really do it justice. From the moment we arrived, the entire team made us feel incredibly welcome and cared for. Tom went above and beyond to make the evening special and even showed us behind the scenes, which meant a lot to us and we will never forget it. Our server, Raz, was wonderful — kind, attentive, and excellent at explaining every part of the experience. A special mention also goes to Max, our sommelier, who was outstanding. He was not only extremely knowledgeable but also warm and genuinely kind. As we are from Argentina, being welcomed in Spanish by him was such a lovely touch — he truly made us feel at home. Everything about the evening was exceptional: the food, the service, and the atmosphere. We left smiling, feeling incredibly happy, and already wishing to come back. Thank you to the entire Fat Duck team for such a unique and unforgettable experience.
