Looking for the full list of Michelin-starred restaurants in the 2023 Michelin Guide for Great Britain and Ireland? You've come to the right place – here, we've featured every restaurant which has made it into the prestigious book.
The 2023 guide marked the long-awaited return to an in-person ceremony; 2021's event was held virtually thanks to the pandemic and last year's was scrapped altogether in favour of announcements on Twitter. Despite the changes, there was just as much celebration for those who earned a place in the hallowed red book, but such a momentous occasion in the culinary calendar certainly deserves festivities to remember, and we're sure restaurateurs were delighted to be reunited, this year at Silverstone Circuit.
The 2023 guide saw twenty-three restaurants awarded new ratings, including twenty new one-star restaurants and three new two-star restaurants (the reopened The Ledbury, Alex Dilling at Hotel Café Royal and dede, the latter of which was promoted from one-star). There were no new three-star restaurants, though all of the existing ones held onto their stars.
It was a particularly good night for Cumbria, which celebrated a hat-trick of new stars, the most of any county, after Kevin and Nicola Tickle’s Heft, The Samling in Windermere and Penton’s Pentonbridge Inn all took home their first award. London, meanwhile, led the way for cities, with four new one-star restaurants (Clerkenwell Italian Luca, Mayfair omakase restaurant Taku, Blue Mountain School’s Cycene in Shoreditch and Restaurant St. Barts), alongside its two new two-stars.
A handful of restaurants lost their stars, though most were due to closure, such as Thomas Carr 1873, Restaurant Tristan, Casamia, Tudor Room (following chef Tony Parkin's departure – it was rebranded as The Tudor Pass when chef Alex Payne took over, with the new restaurant receiving a star in this year's guide), The Glasshouse, Peel's at Hampton Manor (the manor's Grace & Savour this year earned its first star) and Loam. Other restaurants that lost their stars were Seven Park Place and The Woodspeen. Venues which were the result of rebrands were recognised, such as Source in Bowness-on-Windermere (which was previously HRiSHi) and Woven by Adam Smith (formerly Coworth Park in Ascot).
Sustainability remained high on the agenda, with four new green stars awarded by inspectors. Dan Cox's laser focus on regenerative farming at 120-acre farm and restaurant Crocadon earned him one, alongside Merlin Labron-Johnson's hyper-seasonal Osip in Somerset, Chantelle Nicholson's low-waste Mayfair restaurant Apricity and Hylton Espey’s Culture in Falmouth.
The new one-star restaurants for 2023 were: Heron, Terre, St. Barts, Taku, Solstice by Kenny Atkinson, Heft, Cycene, Àclèaf, Store, Luca, Lumière, Ben Wilkinson at The Pass, Restaurant Twenty-Two, Timberyard, Grace & Savour, Gidleigh Park, The Samling, Sō–Lō, The Tudor Pass and Pentonbridge Inn.
