The Old Priory Hotel just outside of Bath is home to the well known and very highly revered Moody Goose Restaurant, a classic Modern British restaurant run by Stephen Shore and his partner Jennifer Laws. The location couldn’t be more idyllic and well located- The Old Priory Hotel is just 15 minutes from both Bath and Bristol and is reputed to be one of the oldest houses in Somerset, dating back to 1152. A charming and very historical dining room full of beams and inglenooks sets the scene for an innovative Modern British feast. Its clear that Shore and Laws are highly experienced in the restaurant game, Shore is an accomplished chef with imagination and flair and Laws manages the front of house with ease. The food is top class with a strong emphasis on fresh, seasonal produce. Starters include double baked blue cheese soufflé with buttered spinach, white wine and almond cream or salad of Cornish lobster followed by mains of roast breast of Barbary duck served with braised puy lentils and oranges and tarragon or roasted cod with a parsley and pine kernel crust served with steamed cockles and saffron. Desserts are equally as good with choices like chocolate and cherry clafoutis with cassata ice cream. The Moody Goose is definitely up there with the best of them for both location and exceptional food.
