The Conservatory Restaurant, at the delightful Boxmoor Lodge in Hemel Hempstead, is a friendly, family owned business with an exceptional modern British menu. The light-filled dining room has crisp linens, garden views and fresh flowers, and the service is faultless. The Head Chef at Boxmoor Lodge, Stuart Ambury, oversees a kitchen that prides itself on high-quality GM free ingredients and creative presentation. Our favourite dishes include the Mr Waller’s Aylesbury duck with ginger sauce served with red cabbage spiced with chestnuts and apricots and gratin dauphnoise, and Teriyaki Salmon served with chilli vegetable noodle stir fry and a sweet and sour sauce. The restaurant also has a wonderful wine list, selected by Lilyane Weston.
