Essex restaurant Essex earns first Michelin star for its seasonal, French-inspired cuisine.
In 2025, Essex earned its first Michelin star, marking a major milestone for the region’s culinary reputation.
The accolade highlights a standout restaurant near Little Waltham, led by Essex-born chef Tom Clarke, formerly of Raymond Blanc’s Le Manoir aux Quat'Saisons.
Set in a whitewashed, beamed building with views of wheat fields, the restaurant features seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, French-inspired techniques, and artistic tasting menus.
Dishes include pork terrine with apple and waffle, pistachio financier with strawberry and meadowsweet, and seasonal creations like smoked salmon tart and venison loin.
Known for refined presentation, bright flavors, and a romantic atmosphere, it also offers exceptional lunches and Sunday roasts.
The recognition, part of a national list compiled by food expert Kerry Walker from Maldon, underscores Essex’s rising status as a top destination for fine dining in the UK.
