Chamberlain's Restaurant
The Grill by Tom Booton
The Woodspeen Restaurant & Cookery School
Woodspeen, Near Newbury, Berkshire
Overview
The Woodspeen is the epitome of pared-down style. It appears to be a simple refurbished 19th century rural public house. But first impressions are very deceptive. Step inside and you emerge into an impressive 'Nordic' stylised dining extension with a wall of bi-folding glass doors and an open plan kitchen. The original part of the building remains as the public house, updated but retaining its charm.
A wonderful wooden-slat ceiling with large skylight, faux fur throws over seating and polished concrete floors offer elegance, comfort and warmth. A perfect setting for the culinary brilliance of some of the UK's great chefs, Peter Eaton - previously Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons and The Vineyard, both two Michelin-starred restaurants; and Olly Rouse who has worked closely with Peter over many years and also at Lainston House.
The food follows the same perspective - a simplified offering, applied brilliance and excellent produce made extremely well, complemented by an superb service brigade headed by Alex Fasoli.
Sister restaurants include The Boxford, which is moments down the road, The Clockspire in Dorset, and The Star Inn in Oxfordshire where member privileges apply.
