Restaurant Coworth Park to relaunch as Woven by Adam Smith
Set to launch on 8 September, the restaurant will occupy the same space as the Michelin-starred Restaurant Coworth Park, which has been overseen by chef Adam Smith since 2016.
The new restaurant will offer diners ‘an unforgettable culinary experience’ in a new space created by Martin Hulbert Design, which led the design of the Dorchester Collection-owned hotel when it launched in 2010.
Both the interior and the menus will be inspired by Coworth Park’s parkland setting with Smith set to create dishes 'inspired by classic flavours and techniques, presented in fresh, creative, and contemporary ways’.
The price point will be comparable to Restaurant Coworth Park, with Woven by Adam Smith due to offer a set priced menu that’s £80 at lunch and £130 at dinner.
The hotel’s surroundings and Smith's new menus will inform the drinks programme at Woven by Adam Smith, featuring seasonal cocktails and many English wines alongside leading ‘international producers’.
The main dining room seats 44 guests, with the adjoining conservatory, seating 14, having sweeping views over Coworth Park’s grounds.
“A memorable dining experience is created by so much more than the dishes that we eat. With Woven, we will be pushing the boundaries of creativity and excellence in food, but also in drinks, service and design to create a restaurant that delights both destination diners and hotel guests alike,” Smith says.
“Stories and knowledge from my entire career, alongside inspiration from the idyllic landscape, will be woven into the menus, and the dishes, whilst refined, will be presented in playful and contemporary ways. Woven has been many years in the making, and we cannot wait to welcome our first guests.”
Originally from Birmingham, Smith trained at restaurants including The Ritz and The Devonshire Arms and won the Roux Scholarship in 2012.
Smith will continue to oversees the menus at the 71-bedroom hotel's more relaxed The Barn and afternoon tea in the Drawing Room.
