Saving the best till last, the reopening of this handsome dining room marks the completion of Andaz hotel's lavish refurbishment. The Grade-II listed interior of 1901 still defers to its show-stealing proportions and striking glass dome, though a cheese & wine tasting area points to an interactive modern approach.
British produce stars on a menu that celebrates provenance, so smoked haddock may hail from Lincolnshire, but its inventive boudin shape & sauce americaine show the kitchen's wider influences. At main, tender cannon of Elwy Valley lamb comes with a miniature shepherd's pie. To finish, the Brit-dominated cheese cellar is unmissable. Gracious service, generously spaced tables and the engaging sommelier's refreshing approach to the region-led wine list is a bonus.
