... Having been introduced to 'Clos du Marquis' a few years ago and made several visits since, it seemed the perfect choice for our small and intimate wedding lunch. Garth went out of his way from our first approach to ensure it would be a day to remember. The small function room was perfect for our numbers and we were given free reign to decorate it the day before. Our guests were bowled over by the quality of the food (something of course we are used to) and the service I could only describe as invisible but everything just happened and what of course we love is the charm and repartee of Garth. Thank you for making our special day even more memorable. To be recommended! ...
Kindest regards Ben and Paddy Parmee
Dear Garth
Just a quick note of enormous thanks for such a wonderful evening last night. You, Orsi and the Clos du Marquis team looked after us so well and everything went like clockwork. The food was, of course, absolutely outstanding, as always. We really could not have asked for better.
We have no idea how you manage to look after so many people/tables at once, giving everyone so much attention and making everyone feel so special, without even dropping a fork! You are the consummate professional.
Thank you too for the most thoughtful birthday dessert, I was very touched.
It was a truly excellent evening and we are most grateful.
See you again soon.
Kind regards
Kay and David
Clos du Marquis is an award winning French restaurant nestled on the London Road just outside Stockbridge. With the quaint and evocative small beamed dining rooms, be assured of a relaxing and immersive dining experience, complimented with a fantastic a la carte menu and diverse wine list.
One small business that has been operating for years is a good example of how planning ahead and getting the offer and the pricing right – and keeping the delivery spot-on - works well. Clos du Marquis at the Leckford Hutt near Stockbridge in Hampshire is a good exa
mple of a business that knows its market and adjusts its offers to the prevailing climate. I called in recently on a cold January morning en route to Wiltshire and got the last table available for lunch. It was packed – it even had some double covers of people lunching long into the afternoon. As usual the chef/patron called at every table with a sensitive and relevant enquiry or observation. They cook with real skill, deliver full value and treat all their customers as family. I recommend you try it. If you like Gascon cooking, good value and some great south west wines, there’s nowhere quite so in tune with the times.
