Us to the core
About
We are all about connectivity between people and places, places and people – to great hospitality.
Guide
Welcome to our foodie hub, a luxury hospitality network where you’ll find the very best gourmet recommendations to eat in, eat out, learn to cook, or find a foodie event.
We don’t do critiques, but value professional judgments from the experts. We collectively list all Michelin starred restaurants; all AA restaurants with a minimum of three Rosettes plus; and notable others who shy away from rating systems. Simply, we list without fashion or favour, so you can make better informed dining choices.
We’re not a booking engine either; we don’t charge restaurants for any bookings made through us. We are original and unique. We are able to be a free service simply because people that like dining out, dine out better when they subscribe to our Club.
Club
We are proud to be the UK’s premier fine dining club, providing access to the largest selection of gourmet insights, invitations and exclusive savings at leading restaurants.
Using our club and app, we’ll help connect you to the best places, try new things or perhaps satisfy cravings. Or if you don’t regularly dine-out, we’ve got you covered with dine at home options too. But everywhere you go within the club, we’ll help save you money or give you something extra to treat you and your dining guests with.
Not that we are trying to be particularly virtuous; restaurants need diners, and love loyal custom. The Luxury Restaurant Club creates that; keeping members engaged, inspired and eager to dine out more. We’re glad you’ve found us and hope you’ll join.
Our history
Following a career marketing five star hotels and clubs in various far-flung parts of the world (we still do that), Tessa launched the company in 1999, initially to create bespoke clubs for independent boutique hotels. Then it was a case of connecting the dots; creating a brand to give numerous hotelier clients access to wider audiences. From this the company proudly created many firsts: first to create a national network of independent leading restaurants; first to launch a free restaurant marketing platform; then a digital card; then digital experiences. But we’re not a large company; just 10 happy people finding great places worthy of your time and wallet. Stay tuned for what’s next.
