Hawthorn

Fine food, fit for special occasions. Food quality and taste is very good. However, the menu is quite short and you can hardly get something to eat if you are a vegan Vegetarian options: No choice for vegans

Perfect in every way. Thank you!

Dress code listed on website seems irrelevant, but brilliant food

I was very pleased with my return to this place. I used to go many times when it was the Glasshouse. The wild garlic starter was superb as was the veal main. The marmalade bread and butter was a disappointment. It tasted of nothing but marmalade. A small issue! All in all I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Fantastic food, service was excellent, had a delightful Sunday lunch

This is my second visit at the Hawthorn since changing ownership from the Glasshouse. My first visit was on New Year's Eve 2023/24 and I can honestly say the food was absolutely amazing probably one of the best meals I have ever experienced, Sadly on my visit in late February for a Saturday evening dinner was ruined by the over seasoning of every dish everything was just much too salty including the desert, my wife was also of this opinion and she chose different dishes to myself. Quality and effort that went into the dishes was of top drawer. Wheelchair accessibility: Step free access. No accessible toilet.

Unfortunately the experience was underwhelming... When you're pricing yourself at this level, you're competing with some pretty serious local eateries in Silver Birch and La Trompette and Hawthorn falls some distance short. The food was OK - portion size good and all well cooked but nothing standout from a flavour perspective. It all came across as a little safe and unadventurous, probably best illustrated by the souffles which were largely tasteless and overwhelmed by the accompanying ice-cream. We also both found it difficult to hear at our table - might be a result of being sat by the window in a busy restaurant but this isn't something we've experienced elsewhere. Service was good enough but impersonal - no real effort to talk us through the menu nor any recommendations on wine. All in all, not really what we expected given the other reviews we've seen - maybe we just caught the restaurant on an off day?

Excellence. Simply excellence. Great atmosphere, impeccable service, exquisite food. Thank you for making our anniversary a night to remember.
