Villiers Restaurant

Luxury takes on many forms and, in Buckingham, the well-known Villiers Hotel is probably a very good example of a sumptuously decorated hotel with excellent food and accommodation, all of which come together with great aplomb. Situated right in the heart of the town, this is a fabulous place if you plan to host a wedding because everything is custom designed to make the day extra special. It's also a good option for more mundane events like conferences and business meetings or even if you're simply keen on soaking up the surrounding sights.

Their AA 2 rosette awarded restaurant offers menus with starters such as foie gras and chicken liver mousse, duck rillette and rhubarb compote. Mains could include delights such as roasted fillet of sea bream, brandade potatoes and horseradish sauce. For dessert, the lemon and ginger honeycomb posset with almond brittle is delightful without becoming overwhelming. The bar is stocked with real ales and a very good range of wines and spirits from across the world.
