Food at Whatley Manor bursts with flavour and originality with a choice of two dining experiences and two bars; perfect for an aperitif before lunch or dinner. The style is classical french with a modern interpretation using the very best ingredients. Both restaurants are overseen by 2 star Michelin chef Martin Burge.

 ‘The Dining Room’ delights all senses; deeply impressive from the tiny amuse bouches through to the plates laden with decadent petit fours, with multiple courses in between – every mouthful is utterly delicious.

Since the opening of Whatley Manor Martin has achieved numerous accolades, attaining his first Michelin star in January 2005. In September 2008 the AA awarded ‘The Dining Room’ four AA rosettes and in January 2009 Michelin awarded Burge a second star for his acclaimed cuisine. This was swiftly followed in June 2009 with the BMW Square Meal award for ‘Best Out of Town UK Restaurant 2009’ and in November of the same year The Independent voted Burge ‘Chef of the Year’. In August 2010 The Good Food Guide listed ‘The Dining Room’ in the top 20 restaurants in the UK with a fantastic rating of 8 out of 10.
