We had a meal here at the weekend. OMG it was so nice to go out for a meal and get treated like a customer and not just another number. They only have 6 or 7 tables and so the diners are the centre of attention from start to finish. It was a pleasure to have aperitifs and wines served correctly and in the right glassware. They serve fish with a fish knife, I can't remember when I was last served fish with a fish knife.
The menu has a good choice of dishes, everything we ordered was delicious and looked beautiful prepared and presented.
Garth is a great host and makes you feel very welcome.
We will definitely be going back again soon.

We went with another couple for lunch and all felt it was the best experience in our recent memory which is saying something as we love eating out! Sorry I didn't take pictures of the food which was delicious from the amuse-bouche to the chocolate truffles served complimentary at the end of our meal. Champagne excellent, crab starter excellent, rabbit with mustard sauce absolutely divine. But in addition to the lovely food and wine, the owner was so very welcoming without being intrusive, served perfectly so we always felt taken care of but our conversations never interrupted. It was like the Gavroche where no one appears until you need them. To take it to perfect 5 stars, the restaurant was immaculately clean and the decorations and loos beautifully done. That is where these pictures are from as I would like to copy the idea - sorry no pictures of the well presented food......

This was where I took my wife on our first date and have been back every year since (including to propose). The menu is small and excellently prepared. The dishes change frequently but are always authentic French. Garth looks after you expertly and knows what you desire often before you do! Outstanding food doesn't come cheap but Clos du Marquis is always value for money. I cannot recommend it enough.

Phenomenal experience in french cuisine. From the time you walk In to the time you leave everything is perfect. Fantastic authentic French options to choose from with everything cooked to perfection. Truly 5 star dining and would highly recommend

Good solid french cooking. Great service, if slightly dad jokeish. Nice wine.

We had a most enjoyable lunch at the Clos du Marquis Restaurant this afternoon. It’s the first time we have dined here but will definitely not be the last. The food, wine and service from Garth and his wonderful wife were second to none. We are very fortunate to have dined in many top restaurants at more than double the price, but the quality and overall experience of the Clos du Marquis is easily as good. Thank you Garth, will be back on a regular basis…
Andy Black
Great atmosphere, service and food. Good value too. Thank you very much.
Would also like to mention that they had a great menu, including the days specials. They accommodated our two Vegan guests no problem and they were very complimentary about their choices.
The cheese selection was excellent. The coffee and Chocolate to finish
the evening were more than just the end of the evening being remarkable in their own right. The chocolate in particular being very rich in Coco with some brandy - outstanding!

Our favourite restaurant in the world, and only 10 miles from home.
We've been coming here for about 6 years and have never had anything other than an utterly exquisite meal.
Amazing service, incredible food, lovely ambiance - never feels busy or rushed, we feel like old friends rather than customers.
All the stars!!

Brilliant! The owners always go above and beyond and the food is excellent. It was so good we recently hired it out for a birthday party.
The owners, staff and venue were perfect. Not over the top, not too much. Just right. A great balance of lovely food and drink + open reception area to mingle and talk and round table setup for the main meal. Will 100% recommend and go back.

How to start, you are greeted by Garth, the owner, he is married to a beautiful lady who happens to be a French chef. I will travel for 2 hours to eat lunch or dinner at this restaurant, from the selection of their ingredients, to the perfect cooking to the beautiful plate, your tummy and your soul is filled with gorgeous food, it is relaxed and on your second visit you feel like family, Garth is charming and enjoys discussing his love of food and ingredients with you, he has an amazing cellar and knowledge of wine, it is rare when you can trust the owner to select your wine, but we always do and are served delicious wine at a reasonable price, I have eaten at some of the best restaurants in London and Europe, I enjoy them all, but the whole experience of Clos is perfect, please go and enjoy this amazing experience
Susan Palmer
This is our favourite place for a special meal. The whole experience is first class. We were warmly greeted and shown to seats in front of the fire where we then had delicious canapés. This was followed by the most perfect meal, the chef is just brilliant. Fine wine and puddings later, we had to reluctantly leave. The service is exceptional. They really do care about their customers here. We cannot recommend it highly enough.

We love every time we visit Le Clos. Garth is always so welcoming and the setting and food astounding. Best value fine dining for miles.
Tom Meldrum
A simply brilliant meal with wonderful staff who perfectly achieve that delicate balance of attentiveness without intrusion that so many fail to get. If you like French cheese then tell them you'd like to be adventurous and see what turns up!
