Le Champignon Sauvage, Cheltenham

Le Champignon Sauvage, Cheltenham

One of the UK's finest, Le Champignon Sauvage is a two-star Michelin restaurant, opened in Cheltenham over three decades ago by husband-and-wife team David and Helen Everitt-Matthias.

'...what I consider to be one of the best meals of my life,' wrote the Observer's food critic, Jay Rayner, about Cheltenham's Le Champignon Sauvage.

Numerous others have agreed: the accolades picked up by husband-and-wife team David and Helen Everitt-Matthias are extraordinary; yet this is an unpretentious, relaxed experience, too, full of warmth and intimacy.

David is known for his experimentation with ingredients and craft; he describes his style as a meeting of 'terroir', and modern French, with original touches. Bold, strongly flavoured, colourful food: it's a feast for all the senses.

Set menus are astonishingly good value; an experience not to be missed.

Open Wednesday to Saturday.
