NEW MIDLANDS RESTAURANT Award-winning chef Stu Deeley has officially opened The Warwick, his highly anticipated new restaurant set within the elegant grounds of Mallory Court Country House Hotel & Spa in Leamington Spa. The opening marks a celebrated return for Stu, bringing his signature style of refined, ingredient-led British cuisine back to the Eden Hotel Collection. The restaurant offers an elevated but unpretentious dining experience, rooted in the seasons and shaped by ingredients from the Mallory Court Kitchen Gardens. It promises a modern expression of refined British dining, set within the hotel’s historic grounds, where guests will enjoy an elevated yet welcoming dining experience. The Warwick presents a choice of two tasting menus: a five-course Taste of the Season (£105) and a three-course menu (£90). Highlights include Cornish crab with Isle of Wight tomatoes, Poussin with Jamón sauce, and a garden-fresh peas and mint gazpacho with burrata and globe artichoke. Desserts pay homage to childhood classics, such as Stu’s nostalgic Baked Alaska. The Warwick is now open for dinner Wednesday to Sunday, and for lunch on Sunday.

Great conversation starters, the inspiration behind the award-winning distillery’s collection comes from a desire to capture a moment in history, developing flavours to fully represent the county’s own unique story and bringing the range of hand-crafted flavours to life. These include Leamington on Parade, inspired by the true story of three elephants brought over from Sri Lanka to Leamington by circus elephant trainer Sam Lockhart in the 1880s; The Kingmaker – named after Richard Neville 16th Earl of Warwick and Peeping Tom – inspired by the legend of Coventry’s Lady Godiva. Their new special-edition rums are among those also available in cute 5cl servings, with the added option of rope handle gift backs and tonic or even handmade chocolates infused with their own gin or rum. The rum collection - Spice Blended Rum, Sting Like A Bee Honey Rum and Ghost Edition White Rum – are inspired by Warwickshire’s own legendary boxing champion Randolph Turpin, who earned himself the nickname Leamington Licker. The distillery also offers visitor experiences, such as Gin Tasting, Cocktails at The Distillery and their new Afternoon Gin & Tea, plus a range of build-your-own branded gift bundles.
