Restaurants à Yardley Hastings

From the moment we stepped into the Four Pears, we knew we were in for something special. The warm, inviting atmosphere was perfectly complemented by the exceptional hospitality of Clare, who made us feel instantly at home. Our evening began with a beautifully presented beef tartare with hash brown, a dish that perfectly balanced texture and flavor. This was followed by the smoked salmon taramasalata, which was velvety, rich, and delicately smoked—an absolute delight. For mains, we started with the hake with celeriac, a dish that showcased the freshest ingredients with stunning execution. The balance of flavors and textures was nothing short of perfection. The lamb rump, however, was the true star—cooked to tender perfection and paired with the most delicious, indulgent potatoes. Every bite was an experience in itself. To finish, the chocolate 54% with miso caramel and milk gelato was a revelation. The balance of sweet, salty, and umami flavors made it a dessert to remember—rich, yet not overpowering, and utterly moreish. The drinks were equally impressive. My husband enjoyed a superb wine flight, with each pairing thoughtfully selected to elevate the meal. The port he had at the end was, in his words, “out of this world.” Meanwhile, my hard seltzer cocktail was made with precision and finesse, beautifully refreshing and perfectly balanced. A huge credit goes to Chef Joe Walker and James Peck, whose expertise and passion shine through in every dish. The entire experience was enhanced by the fact that they catered so effortlessly to my dietary intolerances, making me feel completely at ease. For a dining experience of this caliber, the pricing is truly exceptional. Four Pears isn’t just a meal; it’s a beautifully curated evening of indulgence, warmth, and impeccable flavors. Highly, highly recommend!

Absolutely amazing experience loved the food and such good value

Even though it was very busy, half term, Caroline, was exceptional. She was attentive, nothing too much trouble and kept smiling through a very long shift. I wish there was more people like her who actual listens and helps.

We always have a good experience at this place, would recommend as quality is constant.

Quality food in a very relaxed atmosphere
