Wonderful food worthy of the Michelin star but the staff were even better. Took my wife for her birthday and they really made it special.

The taster menu is a beautiful and tantalising dining experience. Staff were attentive and informative about the produce and food preparation. A lovely atmosphere. Also, the speed at which the dishes came to the table was perfect. Not rushed, but neither too slow; just right. I didn't stay. Therefore, I can not comment in the rooms.

Had the privilege of staying at the Pentonbridge Inn last night to celebrate our special anniversary weekend. The room was full of character, tastefully decorated and the bed was so comfortable. The tasting menu in the evening was absolutely outstanding and very worthy of Michelin ⭐️. The courses were so delicious, full of interesting flavours and textures; great use of local and homegrown ingredients. The breakfast next morning was perfect! Thank you so much to everyone for making it a wonderful weekend.

Beautiful cooking, lovely balance of flavours, and a lovely relaxed atmosphere. Every course was lovely, but standout items were the beetroot meringue from the canapés, the cheesy biscuit with the amuse bouche, the smokey crunch of the almonds with the scallop....Oh, I was supposed to be picking highlights! The fish course, hake with sauternes sauce and crunchy salsify was delicious and a lesson I how to balance flavours and texture. We loved it and will be back.

We had a great stay, and a delicious dinner. The food was incredibly good - one of my best ever restaurant experiences - and the staff were helpful, attentive and warm. Thank you very much indeed!

This is not our first time dining at the Pentonbridge Inn and for my wifes birthday I decided to stay overnight so we could enjoy the evening and her special day. The accommodation was excellent and the service very polite and efficient. The evening however was ruined by the behaviour of the sommelier who was very polite but made a critical mistake. I had ordered a very expensive wine, a 2020 Pommard Les Vignots, Xavier Monnot at £130. The sommelier informed me that he couldn’t supply that wine but had an alternative, a 2019 Pommard Tavannes Domaine Ferand et Laurent Pillot that for me, he would let me have at the same price. Unfortunately I had my phone and using their excellent wi-fi was able to discover that the alternative wine retails for half the price of my original choice. Thats £38 vs £76 retail. This made me feel angry and upset. I pointed this out to the sommelier who said politely he would reduce the bill by £20. That of course was not enough. Its difficult to express my disappointment with his behaviour or the subsequent response of the manager who did little to ameliorate the situation. This was a very expensive stay that I would rather forget. The food was excellent but I didn’t enjoy my meal. My recommendation is to never accept anything this restaurant offers as a replacement and connect to the wi-fi if you do.

This was our second visit to Pentonbridge and I won’t be our last. Extremely well appointed rooms in a quiet setting in the country. The tasting menu was exceptional. An excellent wine list from which to choose your favourite tipple. More than deserves its Michelin star. Staff are friendly and professional. The fire in the lounge area was lovely to sit in front of on a cold November day

We went here for a "wine dinner", which was a first there, as far as I know. The sommelier selected wines, all produced by Casa Silva of Chile.The sparkling wine, to start, was not Chilean, bering two different champagnes produced by Joseph Perrier. The chef then produced a dinner to accompany the wines. We enjoyed the champagne as a pre-dinner drink and then with a selection of canapés, which were very good. The dinner comprised four courses. We started with North Sea halibut, with oyster mayonnaise, dill and apple; accompanied by Riesling Lago Ranco. This was followed by Scallop and Langoustine Tortelini in a coriander and ginger broth; accompanied by Viognier Lolol. The main course was pigeon (squab) breast with stuffed cabbage, plum and 5 spice; accompanied by Quinta Generation. The desert course was a selection of device, exotic fruits and coconut; accompanied by a Late Harvest blend dessert wine. The wines were all excellent and the matching food was impeccably prepared and utterly delicious. All the time we we entertained with descriptions of the wines and food. The atmosphere was informal and very friendly. There was no pressure, as we were allowed as much time as we wanted between courses. It was a memorable night and I heartily recommend Pentonbridge Inn for anyone who enjoys good food.

Excellent dinner. Appreciated seeing the kitchen work quietly to produce wonderful dishes. Stayed overnight in a very comfortable and modern bedroom and enjoyed a beautiful breakfast. Staff great, food great, room great and overall ambience great.

From the warm greeting at the beginning of our stay at The Pentonbridge Inn to a wonderful breakfast we had a lovely overnight stay for my husband's 60th birthday. The room was warm and beautifully furnished and, as we had booked a dog friendly room, included a dog bed and food too. The 8 course tasting menu was fantastic from start to finish and our table overlooked the pass. Every member of the staff was friendly and efficient. We will definitely be back

This was our first visit following a recommendation from friends. We could not have been more impressed. From the moment of our arrival we were made to feel so welcome, our room was lovely and the bathroom amazing. The tasting menu was interesting and inventive and every course beautifully presented, and well described by small but attentive staff. Definitely worthy of the Michelin Star and AA Rosettes. We were extremely impressed by the whole stay and would hope to be back
