I have stayed at New Place many times and have always enjoyed the restaurant. I was very disappointed with the menu changes and increase in prices.
Service was very slow and we were often left with empty plates on the table. Our table was booked for 6.30 on a Monday evening- we left at 8.45.
My main course - pork belly - was outstanding. Unfortunately the other courses were very disappointing.

Got to say it is a lovely place, a little tricky to find at night, so make sure you have a good sat nav!!
Imposing Jacobean brick stately home type building, lots of original features, expansive grounds and plenty of parking. Reception a little tricky to find, as the direction signage is in letters about an inch high for some reason?
Staff we met were all lovely, bar is very quaint and the Fork restaurant quite intimate in a lovely way. Food was very well presented, quality fresh ingredients, hot plates and really tasty. It is a little on the pricey side, easy to spend £100 for 2 with a couple of drinks, but worth it for a special occasion! A great place to go for a wedding anniversary meal for example…

Firstly I want to make it clear that all the staff are lovely. On arrival we couldn’t check in on time as our room wasn’t ready, I had let them know it was a birthday treat in my booking comments. So we went to the bar for a drink while we waited. I ordered a cocktail which took 20minutes to come, by which time my partner had finished his drink already. Dinner was lovely, again had to wait for drinks, food came out within reasonable time and was delicious, how ever,we waited such a long time for dessert that in the end we cancelled them as it got past the point of wanting them. Breakfast again was a bit of ordeal, you book a time slot upon check in yet wen we arrived at our allocated time slot there were no tables available, we were asked if we would like to sit outside but it was very chilly that day but said we would anyway just so we could get some food.

We stayed here on the Sunday stopover deal and I was expecting to get maybe £30 each towards dinner,to our surprise we both got 3 course each!! If we was to pay for that alone it would have cost minimum £90!! So this offer is such good value for money as you get dinner bed and breakfast plus a bottle of wine in the room including! Staff were lovely,food was lovely room was lovely,would defo return and recommend

Very good food and choice of menu. Service very slow. We were one of only three sets of people in the restaurant and it took approx 3 hrs to have 3 courses. For the dessert we had to hunt down a member of staff to take out order

Great service from friendly staff. Food of good quality and cooked well. Slightly salty for our liking but maybe down to us not having alot of salt in our diet so personal preference

I dinex alone in the dining room in the evening. I didn’t feel awkward except I do wish when you book a table for one you don’t get the inevitable question and then 2nd place setting noisily removed. The house is beautiful, very British and historic. The food was top class and nicely presented.
Breakfast was good but a little chaotically put out in buffet style. I would have preferred to be served fresh coffee or tea rather than a machine. Having said that the coffee was good but lots of getting up and down.

I have taken a few stars off the ambience rating. The evening was not quite ruined due to the excellent food and service thankfully. The ambience should be five stars too because of the exquisite room we were dining in but it was ruined by one table of four people who felt the need to share their whole conversation with the rest of the diners.
The room had one single diner, five tables with couples, all managing to keep their conversation private and respectful and a group of four, two of whom could not speak in a controlled volume and couldn't read the mood of the room. The staff did put background music on but it didn't help unfortunately. We all breathed a silent sigh of relief when they left.

Our ‘go to’ venue for dining and afternoon teas. High quality in all areas. Unique ambiance in a listed former manor house set in beautiful grounds. Rural location.
Based on a our experience we would highly recommend.

Superb food served in a lovely setting. We booked at 18.00 before the busy slot and the service was great. Having visited New Place many times over the past 15 years I would thoroughly recommend it.

The menu is varied but it seems that it is over-ambitious for the kitchen. We had fish that was tasty enough but over-cooked and a tarte-tatin with a pastry base that was under-cooked - indeed almost uncooked. The restaurant is pricey for the quality on offer.
