Morston Hall

What a lovely welcome. Staff attentive, friendly and go out of their way to be helpful. We were offered fresh scones and tea which were freshly baked. At dinner the canapés were truly wonderful. Having had many over the years, these canapés were the best. Homemade brioche and sour dough with two types of butter were a lovely touch. It was a special night away so it was good to see Morton Hall again.

We have visited MH at least six times and enjoyed each one. Only 4 for the food though as there is not much that can be done with a Sunday roast. It was very tasty but my cut of beef had too much gristle. The service was excellent as usual and we were made to feel very welcome. We will return.

Our stay at Morston Hall was excellent in every respect. The room was large, beautifully furnished with great views over the garden. Tea and coffee was available as were some very welcome home made cookies. We enjoyed pre dinner cocktails and were served the most delicious canapés. The tasting menu was sublime where the potato veloute, the langoustine and the monkfish dishes were outstanding. The wine flight was beautifully judged and complemented the dishes perfectly. The two course breakfast was also excellent with....the black pudding was the best I've tasted. All the staff we met couldn't have been more friendly, efficient and polite. The staff serving in the dining room were outstanding too and the sommelier had such great knowledge and an infectious enthusiasm for wine. We absolutely loved everything about our stay and would love to return one day.

We had an absolutely excellent experience dining here. We chose the tasting menu, and every course was outstanding – you could tell so much thought and care had gone into every detail of each dish. Not only did everything taste incredible, but the presentation was beautiful as well. The service was second to none. A special mention has to go to Ellie, who went above and beyond to make our evening truly memorable. Her attention to detail and warm hospitality really elevated the whole experience. We couldn’t recommend this restaurant more highly – a perfect blend of amazing food, impeccable service, and a wonderful atmosphere.

Went to Morston again this year for my husbands birthday. (already been for Valentines, and my birthday) Had a great time. New management, some new staff but the excellence just goes on. Chef Galton was not there, but nevertheless everything was perfect. The food and service was superb. Looking forward to next visit.

We went for the 7 course taster meal and it started off so well with lovely canopies in the beautiful garden with its stunning fig trees. Although the food was all locally sourced some of the dishes could have been a bit better we feel as the canopies had so much lovely flavour that some of the other dishes lacked that and were too simple, but that’s our opinion. Staff were amazing with great knowledge of the produce and the wine. I would like to go back to try the proper menu.

Been going to Morston Hall two or three times a year since 2016 but this was the first visit since Galton sadly moved on following his 34 year tenure. ||||New beginnings ||||New chef patron Phil Kearsey may have only been there two weeks but the food was definitely up there and I am convinced it will get even better once he and his new team have had time to gel whilst still upholding the traditions that made Morston Hall what it’s been for the past 27 years of Michelin starred dining.||||Will be returning in March already looking forward to our return.

Room was lovely, but no booklet in there telling us how to access wifi etc... Dining area was cold, pre-dinner canapes were underwhelming, coppa ham and olives, not the quality that Galton would bring out. We were taken to our table half an hour earlier than we requested, the staff were attentive, but compared to our last experience? Can't say it was anywhere near the same. Overall, whilst the food was lovely, the whole experience felt oddly detached and sterile, didn't feel as smooth, warm and accommodating an operation as it did the time we went before. ||||My partner's breakfast wasn't correct, egg was very undercooked to the point where she couldn't eat it. ||||I would usually give the experience we had four stays, but if I'm reviewing in comparison the Morston Hall we remembered? Have to say, sadly, relatively disappointing and not worth the price we paid. They have work to do if they want to keep their star.
