HIDE

The unconventional menu design initially drew me to Hide, but the entire dining experience went far beyond my expectations. Each dish felt like a thoughtful journey, beautifully complemented by the warm and engaging staff who guided us through the courses with enthusiasm. Our favorite course was Not A Bread — a truly standout creation that surprised and delighted us. The atmosphere was equally memorable: the interior design, the lighting, and the carefully chosen music all worked together to create a refined yet inviting setting. While the wine pairing was good, I feel there’s an opportunity to elevate it further with a few more distinctive selections that would match the creativity of the menu itself. Overall, it was an extraordinary experience that balances artistry, flavor, and hospitality in a way that is rare to find. I would wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone looking for something unique and inspiring.

This was my first time at a Michelin restaurant and it was really lovely! The food was truly amazing and the staff looked professional. However, I wasn’t expecting that tart to be delivered in a chipped plate 💔 Also, what was impressive was that they kept the Michelin star in the kitchen instead of showing it off, which shows respect for the team and is quite touching 🥹 When I worked at The Waterside Inn, it wasn’t like that

What a fantastic experience from start to finish! This place is truly a gem, the bar is elegant, classy, and the drinks are next level. I tried one with watermelon, and wow, what a taste! The ambiance is wonderful, with a lovely aroma throughout. We enjoyed a couple of drinks, and everything was absolutely delicious. Even the bathrooms are impressive!

The food was excellent — fresh flavors, beautifully balanced, and presented with a clean, refined aesthetic. Each dish reflected great attention to detail in execution. Unfortunately, the service fell short of the same standard. While the plates spoke for themselves, the experience was let down when our waiter began walking away midway through explaining a dish. It disrupted the flow and diminished what should have been a polished, engaging moment. Overall, the cooking deserves recognition, but service consistency needs to match the quality coming out of the kitchen for the experience to truly shine.

Difficult to assess. We were told initially we were going to be upstairs, but we were sat downstairs. Very busy venue with lots of groups some quieter than others. We went for breakfast and I am a huge fan of cooked breakfasts. The “fry up” was a very small mushroom, one unexciting sausage of no great flavour and two small rashers of streaky bacon and half a large tomato with a thick central core. The food was reasonably free of too much grease, but not overly flavoursome, sadly a nice but underwhelming breakfast, not least for the price. At £30 one expects great textured flavour rich sausages. Eggs were just ages nicely cooked but not much more to say. Staff were lovely breakfast was ok. My sourdough toast was good and my daughter was thrilled with her huge croissant with a number of choices of spreads and jams. Is it interesting? Yes, was it the sort of meal I would expect to see at a one Michelin starred venue not really
