The Pass

What an absolutely fabulous dining experience. Each dish on the tasting menu was exquisite and delivered to our table by either Ben or one of his team, taking the time to talk us through the ingredients. We have eaten at several Michelin Star restaurants and would rate this restaurant amongst the best of those. We are already planning our next visit, excited to see how the dishes evolve as seasons change. We wish Ben, his wife (who was so attentive and engaging in front of house) and his team the success and accreditation they truly do deserve

This was the best meal I have ever eaten. Firstly Ben Wilkinson at the pass is quite a new restaurant and a lot of these reviews are not reflective of this as I believe the restaurant has changed a lot since Covid. It has recently won a Michelin star and the current menu is deserving of this. My wife and I had the 7 course tasting menu which was exquisite. The layout of the restaurant is also carefully thought out with glass surrounding an intimate setting so that you can watch the courses in the kitchen being prepared. Every course is completely unique and is delivered and explained to you by a different chef, who all rotate around the tables which I particularly liked. The food speaks for itself. I won't list every course but the standout was the beef cheek and celeriac. Absolutely divine. The snacks which come before the first course were also out of this world. We didn't opt for the wine pairing but enjoyed quite a few cocktails instead, all which were faultless. The only downside to this is how full we both felt at the end; a very nice problem to have. Having been to other Michelin star restaurants the Pass for me is the best so far, and the chilled out setting I actually prefer to something grander. Overall an exceptional experience that I couldn't recommend highly enough. Vegetarian options: I wouldn't recommend a tasting menu to any vegetarian as it's designed to incorporate a lot of different animal products into a piece of art

We visited the newly opened The Pass by Ben Wilkinson and it was fantastic! The staff were so attentive and the way the restaurant was set up was amazing, you can see directly into the kitchen and see the team make the food. It was such a lovely experience and the good was incredible. We were celebrating a babymoon as-well as our first year wedding anniversary and were already looking at coming back next year. Not one to be missed!
