The Dining Room

The Dining Room is the jewel in Whatley Manor’s culinary crown. At the heart of the restaurant is Executive Chef Ricki Weston, a chef driven by instinct, integrity, a deep respect for ingredients. The menus have a touch of nostalgia and reflect Ricki’s own culinary journey.

The Dining Room experience is as interactive as it is refined, with subtle theatrical touches woven into the evening. Your culinary journey begins in the Drawing Room but soon transitions into the kitchen, where guests meet Chef Ricki Weston to sample his playful yet refined dishes. 

Sustainability is at the helm, in crafting courses that spotlight yesterday’s bread to turning kitchen waste into signature condiments, every dish is a celebration of resourcefulness and consideration for the land. Ricki’s deep respect for ingredients is further evident in the use of the Kitchen Garden, where root vegetables are fermented to extend their seasonality and to ensure they can be used year-round. A zero-waste ethos runs through every corner of the kitchen and grounds, from the honey collected from the hotel’s own bees to vegetables grown in the kitchen garden.
