Hide and Fox Restaurant

1. We went for the 5 course tasting menu which was fantastic. Flavours, textures all beautifully en pointe and cooked to perfection. One of the best meals I’ve eaten this year (and there’s been a few!)
   Excellent wine list and the service was perfect too. Despite the distance from London we will absolutely return in the New Year.

2. *Discretionary
   This event took place in Autunm 2022 so I don’t know the situation now – as none of us has gone back to dine there since.

   I had booked a table for 4 around 3/4 weeks prior to the dinner.
   This was a thank you dinner to our kind foodie friends and they chose this place.
   Upon arrival, we noticed that our table was placed where we had to stare at the bright lights from the kitchen and some untidiness by the kitchen. (Please see the attached photo.) The kitchen door was left open. We thought this would spoil our evening at this Michelin star restaurant so we asked politely if there was anything they could do, to which they simply replied no.

   As far as I am concerned, the view, environment and atmosphere are as important as the food itself in a restaurant. Especially if they claim to offer fine dining. We were very surprised that they had no hesitation in making customers sit with that view in sight.

   I paid around £500 for our dinner and drinks for 4 of us.
   There was no compensation offered in response to our complaint, no discount, no complimentary drinks, which again showed that they thought there was nothing wrong in making customers sit where we sat.

   Was their food so memorable and excellent for us to risk to sit in that terrible seating area again? I’m afraid not. In fact, I cannot remember what we ate that night. I can explain why. It’s because I have eaten so many excellent meals elsewhere since. To be fair, even by the end of that night, I hardly remembered what was served – simply because it was not that memorable. All we now remember is the bright lights and untidiness which spoilt a fine dining atmosphere.

3. Absolutely brilliant experience at Hide and Fox. The atmosphere is nice and cozy and the waitresses were superb. We went for the 8 course taster and there wasn’t a single thing on there we didn’t like. 100% will be coming back again soon!

4. What can I say?! The food was exceptional, truly. Every course was packed full of flavour, the staff were really polite and friendly. It was expensive, my partner and I saved up for Christmas, but it was an experience we’ll never forget. We went for the 8 course tasting menu, but we also got snacks and bread too, so it was more like 10 courses. We had cocktails/mocktails to accompany and they didn’t disappoint either. I really would recommend going. The food for us was 10/10 and well worth the price.

5. Absolutely incredible. Incredible service and brilliantly clever, delicious food. Relaxed atmosphere, perfect all round. We had the 8 dish taster menu paired with wine and every single dish was amazing. Highly recommend,Thank – you for creating such a wonderful restaurant.
