BRASSERIE BLANC WINCHESTER REVIEWS

Amazing vegetarian roast lunch with excellent crispy roast potatoes. All the sides were bottomless so we had extra cauliflower cheese and roasties and they were a treat. The gooseberry and apple crumble was also delicious but needed a little extra custard which the server was happy to provide. Excellent service. Very nice atmosphere. Great Value considering the excellent food quality. Highly recommended.

Absolutely excellent food in a nice environment. The staff were attentive and friendly. Well worth a visit!

Great food. Sunday lunch comes with unlimited gravy, roasties and Yorkshires. Great service too.

COTE BRASSERIE WINCHESTER REVIEWS

Food was amazing, best steak I've ever had and cooked how I asked. I asked for it as rare as possible. Usually I still get handed a medium-well steak, Côte didn't disappoint, just look at that picture. The calamari was delicious and so was the dessert. The staff were very kind and polite. The atmosphere was ruined a little by the noisy families but if they weren't there then the atmosphere was nice too.

As always and in every branch there is an exceptional service and food quality. This is the 4th Cote branch we have visited and it is just as outstanding as other ones we have been to. Our friends have never been before but they said this is the best food they ever had and will be back.

Great atmosphere, attentive service and quality food for our team dinner.

CLOS DU MARQUIS FRENCH RESTAURANT REVIEWS

Thank you to the Clos du Marquis for an excellent dinner which was a belated birthday celebration and a wonderful end to a hot summer's day visiting Stockbridge Open Gardens. We really enjoyed the ambience and attentive but informal service. There are clearly good reasons why this small business endures thanks to the couple who own and run it. We found the menu concise but excellently executed. We really enjoyed the Menu du Terroir options (creole prawns and duck) and equally the A la carte choices (scallops and Dover Sole). The little added touches of the canapes and bread and the delicious chocolate to finish were appreciated. Honestly, we couldn't fault anything and hope to return one day. There are only a few tables and a single service, so book well ahead is our advice.

We had lunch in this lovely restaurant this week and once again we were delighted with the whole experience. The food is always delicious and there is such a wonderful atmosphere. We will definitely return as it is our favourite restaurant.

Brilliant little place, amazing food. Lovely husband and wife combo delivered excellent, knowledgeable service and were lovely to chat to as well. Can't wait to go back.
