The Lavender Restaurant at Weston Manor Hotel - (Near , South East)

5 /5 sushant tiwari: Review for Lavender Restaurant It’s the main restaurant at the Weston Manor and is based in the ground floor overlooking the beautiful manicured lawns and gardens of the Manor House. It’s got a terrace outside as well which was closed when we visited but looks like a nice place for a drink before the dinner ( in summers ). The food was delicious and we tried the scallops / Ham as starters and steak / pasta for mains. All the dishes were well made and of good quality and standard. The steak with peppercorns sauce was tender and juicy. The pesto pasta was very tasty too. The pricing is on par for any good restaurant or a gastro pub in Cotswolds. Meal for 2 can be easily 200 depending on how many drinks you have. The tiramisu was an interesting version of the original Italian version, it was ok but that was the only thing which in my opinion can be made better or maybe go for the classic style. The service was good too. It’s a small cosy restaurant. Verdict 5/5 Meal for 2 is easily 180-200 with a couple of glasses of wine Please follow me on @s50ush for more foodie content and tips

5 /5 Michael K.: We enjoyed afternoon tea. The meal was very good, perfectly presented and the staff were excellent. Much appreciated.

4 /5 Paul Barratt: Based inside the hotel, this is a small historic room, the food was excellent was a bit worried having looked at the reviews that the portion sizes were going to be small but the were just the perfect size. The service was good be my wife was made to feel a bit uncomfortable because she only wanted a main course and was a little pushed into ordering and dessert because you are required to have 2/3 courses, I ordered 3 courses so I don’t know why the couldn’t have been split on the bill! Other than this the was food excellent maybe just a little customer service training for the staff would help. Would recommend, the steak was cooked perfectly and the duck was amazing.

1 /5 Ruby Pritchett: I came here for afternoon tea with 2 friends. We had to wait for too long to be seated (we were the only ones there and no staff were around), and they only had one menu that we all had to share. We paid £32 per person for this afternoon tea and it was not worth that much money, the sandwiches were very basic (cheese and pickle, ham and mustard, a minuscule amount salmon and cream cheese and egg and a brioche bun), the scones were dry and bought all at the same time with the jams pots already open to the elements and the clotted cream was extremely runny, and the sweet treats are terrible not one of them did the three of us think was ok. The best part of the food was the half a strawberry (because they didn’t have to make it). We were the only ones in there apart from a group of 4 eating normal food, and they wanted the windows open which meant that wasps came it and were all over our food (because the jam was open!) there were 4 wasps sounding us and all the staff had to say was it’s that time of year! It ruined our whole experience (as well as the food not being good) and at the end I mentioned to a staff member that they should sort the problem out and I was told that it is not possible because it is a big building, there are many ways you can fix this problem but they really didn’t care. I mentioned keeping the windows closed but I was met with the response of “well the other table wanted it open and we want to keep people happy”, but they forgot there were other people with sweet things that attract wasps. And at the end I had to go and ask for the bill and wait (yet again) for a member of staff to show up just to pay, and they added on a 11% service charge, which I refused to pay because they did nothing and 11% is terrible. I would not recommend coming here as the experience did not meet the price tag.

5 /5 Stuart Wigley: Had an amazing meal on a Saturday night. The food was excellent and the presentation was fantastic. Great friendly service and nice atmosphere
