Here at The Lake Isle, we believe that the heart of exceptional cooking lies in celebrating the ingredients of the moment. It is with great excitement that we re-introduce our beloved Set Lunch Menu in Uppingham, now thoughtfully redesigned to change every single month. This new approach allows us to fully embrace the rhythm of the seasons, offering you a true taste of Rutland's finest produce when it is at its absolute peak of flavour.

Crafted by Head Chef Stuart Mead

Our Head Chef, Stuart Mead, who has been the cornerstone of our kitchen since day one, pours his passion for 'simple excellence' into every dish. Stuart and his talented team have designed a menu that is a testament to this philosophy, offering both an exquisite fine dining experience and exceptional value. Each dish is a creative expression, turning the best local and seasonal ingredients into something truly memorable. This isn't just lunch; it's a showcase of character, precision, and imagination, all served in a way that feels special yet wonderfully unstuffy.

The Perfect Setting for Any Occasion

Imagine unwinding in the calm, sophisticated atmosphere of our 2 AA Rosette restaurant, bathed in soft daylight. The clink of glasses, the murmur of happy conversation, and attentive yet unobtrusive service create the perfect backdrop. Whether you are planning a leisurely lunch with a loved one, a business meeting with a touch of class, or simply wish to indulge in a well-deserved midweek treat, our new set lunch menu provides the perfect setting.

An Experience of Quality and Value

Our goal is to make exceptional food accessible. The set lunch menu is a fantastic opportunity to experience the creativity and quality we are known for. It represents a commitment not only to flavour but also to value, ensuring a memorable meal that feels like a true indulgence without the extravagant price tag.

Reserve Your Table for a Taste of the Season

The menu will be refreshed on the first Tuesday of every month, ensuring there is always something new and exciting to discover on your next visit. We warmly invite you to join us and savour the taste of the season. To experience our latest menu, we recommend making a reservation.

We are incredibly proud and utterly delighted to announce that The Lake Isle has been awarded a prestigious 5-star rating from the AA for our hotel and hospitality services. This is a powerful affirmation of the hard work, passion, and unwavering dedication of our entire team, and we couldn't be happier to share this news with you.

More Than a Rating: A Commitment to Personal Hospitality

For us, as owners who first fell in love with The Lake Isle as guests, hospitality is a very personal passion. It’s about more than just providing a beautiful room; it’s about creating an atmosphere where you feel genuinely welcomed and cared for from the moment you arrive. This 5-star rating is a formal recognition of this ethos. It reflects our commitment to providing the highest standards of comfort, cleanliness, and, most importantly, the kind of personal service that makes a stay truly memorable. Achieving this makes us one of the most highly-regarded places to stay in Rutland and a premier 5-star hotel in Uppingham.

A Double Honour: Excellence in Dining and Accommodation

This fantastic achievement is made even sweeter as it comes alongside two other cherished accolades. We are thrilled to have retained our 2 AA Rosettes for culinary excellence and to have once again received the coveted AA Breakfast Award. This combination of awards solidifies The Lake Isle’s position as a premier destination for those seeking a truly special escape, where every aspect of your stay is held to the same award-winning standard.

What This Means For Your Experience

These accolades are a promise to you, our guest. It means that the passion we have for food is officially recognised-from an exquisite meal in our relaxed fine dining evening menu to the care and quality ingredients that go into your freshly cooked breakfast. It means that from the moment you check in to one of our unique rooms or suites, you can expect an environment of comfort and quality that has been independently verified to be among the best.

A Heartfelt Thank You and An Invitation

We want to extend our sincerest and most heartfelt thank you to all our wonderful guests. Your continued support and valuable feedback are what constantly inspire us to improve, and they are a huge reason why we have been able to achieve these accolades. We are honoured that so many of you choose The Lake Isle for your celebrations, getaways, and special moments.

We now warmly invite you to come and see for yourself what makes The Lake Isle a 5-star experience. We look forward to welcoming you soon.
