A contemporary urban alternative to rural sister venue Hambleton Hall of Rutland, Hart’s has won all manner of plaudits over the years. The interior – designed by Stefa Hart – is relaxing and intimate, seating up to 28 diners.

The upstairs bedrooms (Hart’s is also an award-winning hotel) are equally comfortable and luxurious – perfect if you wish to combine a gourmet dining experience with an overnight stay.

Hambleton Hall’s Michelin-starred chef Aaron Patterson has created the new menus in partnership with Hart’s head chef Martin Sludds. Expect classic, flavoursome, exciting British dishes made with the best seasonal ingredients, plus a serious wine list compiled by owner Tim Hart.
