During an extended stay at Belstead Brook Hotel, I have learned to greatly appreciate the outstanding food and service offered by the team at the Manor Restaurant. The menu is a judicious mix of innovative, beautifully presented international fare and traditional comfort food, all served in the historic oak-panelled restaurant, the more informal piano-bar, or - weather-permitting - the beautiful grounds. Afternoon tea in the garden is a wonderfully bucolic treat, but I've eaten at all times of day from a 7.00am breakfast to a late dinner and always enjoyed great food. Even dining alone isn't intimidating here because of the friendly welcome the staff give all their guests. The lovely grounds and babbling brook make it the perfect wedding venue too! Definitely recommended!

Terrible service - rude, bossy and incompetent. The food was very good but totally ruined by the staff. One young guy with his hair worn on his head was the saving grace - he was polite, helpful and did his job. The Maitre D was a pain in the neck - disorganised, domineering and interrupted our meal a number of times by barking demands for information. The woman who managed the breakfast service was straight from Fawlty Towers. Rude, bossy, telling customers off, telling one family to " go and sit down", but at no point did she explain the way that the service was organised to comply with Covid-19 restrictions. I would rather have a dry sandwich in a layby!
