Moor Hall has been voted the No. 1 restaurant in the UK in the prestigious Harden’s Top 100 Best UK Restaurants annual diners’ poll.
This is a landmark achievement—not only for Moor Hall but for the entire North West dining scene.
Diners describe the experience as “not just a meal, it’s an experience” and praise the cuisine as “faultless in every way.”
The culinary home of chef-patron Mark Birchall. Under his leadership, we have gained three Michelin stars and global acclaim—yet it’s the consistent love from diners that has propelled it to this prestigious position.
Feedback from the Harden’s survey highlights several themes:
One diner summed up the sentiment perfectly: “Every course delights in its own way—this is what UK fine dining should be.”
We are delighted to celebrate this recognition. Moor Hall’s success is a testament to the passion, creativity and commitment of the entire team—chefs, front-of-house, producers and supporters alike.
Whether you’re planning a special occasion, a long-anticipated celebration, or simply a meal you’ll never forget, Moor Hall now stands proudly at the pinnacle of UK dining according to the people who matter most: the diners.
Lancashire is a land of abundance. Our gardens teem with fruit and vegetables and flowers and herbs. In season here you might eat peas straight out of the pod, so fresh all they need is a touch of salt and nasturtium oil. What we don’t grow we seek out from the amazing produce tended and nurtured by local farmers and artisans.
On site we’re also busy with charcuterie, bread-making and our own micro-dairy. There’s always something interesting to explore or a discovery to be made. And we like to share what we find.
