The Chesil Rectory - Winchester

We had a wonderful dining experience at this restaurant. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. We were not rushed and were able to savor the food and atmosphere at our leisure. The desserts were especially noteworthy.

Our dining experience was fantastic, with outstanding food and drinks served by attentive staff.

I've been here several times. Perfect every time. 45 miles to get there, but it's worth it.

No complaints about tasting menu it was good. Matching wines ok, first good, other less so. What I do not want to get to 9 with pre-booked tasting menu, table not ready, dumps up for half an hour near a very loud wedding party, normal menu handed us over when we have already chosen. A drink was offered after 10 minutes, but we didn't want an aperitif somewhere else with friends. No real excuse. It got better when we sit down.

Great food. Seafood starters, pink lamb main, cheesecake then cheese and biscuits with recommended wine choices. Absolutely first class. Knowledgeable bar staff and waiting staff. Good banter with the men; young girls very quiet. Overall the perfect venue for our wedding anniversary celebration. We will be back
