Michelin star, Harden's #22, La Liste 88pts
Michelin awarded The Angel one star in 2026, after one-star recognition in 2024 and 2025. Harden's placed it at #22 in its 2026 UK restaurant ranking, while La Liste scored it 88pts in 2026.
Modern British-Japanese fusion and named signatures
Modern British-Japanese fusion frames dishes such as smoked eel with white chocolate and caviar, Hokkaido milk bread with taramasalata, and lamb prepared multiple ways. The restaurant suits dinner and breakfast plans.
Sommelier-led, local sourcing, mountain outlook
A sommelier-led programme sits alongside local sourcing and farm-to-table sourcing. Mountain views, conversational noise, smart casual dress, and extended pacing make the format better suited to a planned meal than a short stop.

Warm and welcoming with crackling fireplaces, exposed beams, polished concrete floors, light wood furnishings, and muted grey tones; refined yet refreshingly unpretentious despite Michelin star status.
