AA and Michelin Awards

Many diners look to the AA and Michelin for guidance on choosing a place to eat and we have some great local venues for you to try.

Michelin Awards

Michelin stars are probably their most recognised awards. Michelin Stars and Bib Gourmands are awarded annually for the fine quality of the cooking based on an inspector visit.

Michelin Stars: Michelin award one to three stars to a small number of restaurants of outstanding quality.

Bib Gourmand: The distinction is granted to establishments offering "good food at moderate prices".

AA 3 Rosette establishments

Three Rosettes are awarded to outstanding restaurants that demand recognition well beyond the local area. The highest quality ingredients receive sympathetic treatment, and there is consistent timing, seasoning, and judgement of flavour combinations. You can expect excellent and intelligent service, and a well-chosen wine list.
