Really enjoyed our meal there, and had a little walk around the grounds afterwards. We couldn't find fault with any of the dishes, and the complimentary dishes were also very good. The staff were very friendly and accommodating, just a really pleasant experience altogether.

The Auberge du lac is a truly fine dining restaurant with a beautiful location within the grounds of Brocket Hall. Great service, great menu and a very pleasant dining experience with friendly and efficient staff.

Wow. Last visited 2020 , and it after it suffered a corona meltdown…It’s back with punch and enthusiasm.Portions generous for standard of cuisine.Excellent appetisers. Brilliantly prepared and executed menu. Excellent wine list and our chosen champagne was super.Well done.

Lovely weather, so an outside table overlooking the lake with abundant geese and swans was already a great hors d'oeuvre. This was one of their Thursday lunches @ £39 plus drinks.This included free amuse-bouche followed by our three course selection.High quality food. Immaculate presentation. Charming waiters and staff. No time pressures. Totally relaxed lunch deep into the afternoon.Magnificent views. All very country and regal. Which is how we all felt. Thoroughly spoilt and replete.A rare and decadent location. Hidden away on the Brocket Estate in the most peaceful situation.Recently awarded 2 AA rosettes and clearly on course for more awards and accolades.The same £39 menu is also available for evening bookings arriving before 6:45. Same great value indoors or out!Brilliant.

A long leisurely January lunch. The restaurant overlooks the lake and the hall, stunning, as was the food. The set lunch is amazing value at £39 for 3 courses. Highly

Excellent food let down by an amateurish, but well meaning, front of house staff. Good value for money but not quite there as a fine dining experience.

We had a truly unforgettable experience, from start to finish we were greeted and served by incredibly attentive and friendly staff. The food was first class quality and we loved the added touches/compliments. As a vegetarian I was really pleased with how much flavour each meal packed and the range of options. My non-vegetarian partner was blown away by the freshness of ingredients and flavour of his meal too. The location feels incredibly special and the views of the grounds are just so relaxing. We will definitely be back to share this wonderful experience with friends and family.Vegetarian options: A good range of starter and main course options, without compromising on flavour

Exceptional food of Michelin star quality. The service was friendly and relaxed and the timing of each course flowed well. The infusion of flavours was excellent and not overly complicated. Congratulations to Head Chef John Barber and Front of House Manager Scott Foster and their teams for delivering a beautiful dining experience.
