The Lawns Restaurant, Thornton Hall Hotel, Wirral

With two AA Rosettes, executive chef David Gillmore's accomplished cooking recently scored highest in the Mersey Partnership's Taste Liverpool initiative. After a �160,000 refurbishment, the dining room, with its exquisite hand-tooled ceiling inlaid with mother of pearl, offers a grand setting for fine dining on excellent modern European dishes created from the freshest ingredients sourced from local suppliers.

Michael Caines, celebrated two-Michelin star executive chef at Gidleigh Park, put Stuart Collins, his trusted dedicated young prot�g� from the acclaimed Devon hotel in charge of his eponymous new fifth floor restaurant in Chester and the result has been sublime. Dishes are innovative and immaculately conceived and the "grazing menu" in the chic, contemporary dining room, is an experience not to be missed.

Retention of a Michelin star for 20 consecutive years and the award of four AA Rosettes - one of only 26 restaurants in the country to be so feted - tells its own story of consistent excellence at Chester's most famous and prestigious hotel's restaurant. It offers contemporary dining in an atmosphere of chic sophistication and can call upon one of the most extensive wine cellars in England.
