Mistelle at Hainault is in a lovely setting and today was a beautiful day out on the deck to have lunch with friends. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a bottle of sparkling wine which was subtle but enjoyable. The menu to me was a little out of whack. It appeared more of a winter menu with beef, confit duck and potatoes on offer, yet no fish or salad choices. The same applied to the dessert menu, with the meagre cheese offering seemingly the only choice for a hot summer day. There were no choices for vegetarians or vegans on offer today.

We sat out on the deck (which is apparently a new addition to the restaurant) which looked out across the vineyards presenting a beautiful outlook across the vineyards. Both the main course and dessert made for a very enjoyable dining experience, and I offer my compliments to the chef. The downside was the customer service side of things. Some of the staff didn't seem to know how to manage the number of people there, or perhaps they just didn't have enough staff on, and it was hard to get their attention. Additionally, trying to make a reservation wasn't an easy process - they never pick up the phone, they didn't call me back from my voice message, and they didn't respond to my online query. The only reason we were able to make a booking is because I tried to call one more time after several failed attempts, and someone finally picked up the phone. This is a problem the restaurant really needs to work on.…

Just called in and had a beautiful meal. We shared the tasting plate- delicious parfait all complemented each other. Beef and pork were outstandingly cooked dishes. Great to live so close to a special restaurant. Picked up a couple of reds on way out. Definitely recommend. …

What a wonderful addition to the Bickley Valley Wine Trail. Now known as Mistelle, gone is the unwelcome four legged friend, replaced by delicious food, delightful wines and insightful service. The maitre de/owner (?) clearly has a passion not only for quality ingredients but local ingredients. Looking forward to the Spring Menu!…
