About Prévost @ the Haycock

Prévost @ the Haycock is a modern British restaurant in Peterborough, set in a 16th century mews within The Haycock Manor Hotel. The kitchen is built around tasting menus, and the chef who prepared each course explains it at the table. A wine flight or wine pairing can accompany the tasting menu, and a three-course lunchtime menu runs alongside it. Meals begin with an amuse bouche and free flowing bread and butter, and the chocolate cep mushroom dessert is one of the courses. The drinks menu includes cocktails, among them a bacon-infused one. The restaurant is open daily. It moved to its current location from Cowgate.

Customer Review Summary

Reviewers return most for the tasting menus, especially the five-course and the three-course lunch version, with each course introduced by the chef who prepared it. Close behind are the cocktails and wine pairings, including a bacon infused cocktail one diner calls genius, and desserts such as a chocolate cep mushroom dessert. Several describe the room as lovely or stunning, and the service as attentive and friendly, with a few comparing the cooking to Michelin standard. Free flowing bread and butter and a tasty amuse bouche also get a mention. The main dissent comes from one reviewer who booked the five-course taster and found some courses gone in one or two bites. That diner left hungry, disliked the taste of everything except a malt loaf, and felt the portions did not justify the price, though the staff were polite and the service great. One first visit since the move from Cowgate ended with the group planning to return, and a wedding party's guests are still talking about the presentation.

    “My partner and I went for the 5 course taster menu. The staff were very attentive and the atmosphere was lovely. The food was lovely, the combination of flavours and quality of ingredients was impressive. Big selection of drinks and I think fairly priced for the quality of food you get.”

    “We visited Prèvost to try the 5 course taster menu. I use the term of course lightly. Some of the courses were consumed in 1 or 2 bites. I realise these are not meals but to me they verged on the side of ridiculouse in what was actually on the plate. I tried hard to appriciate the combination of tastes but i have to say i really didnt like the taste of anything presented to me except for some malt loaf. It was £70,pp and i left very hungry. This was obviously excluding the drinks consumed. The resturant was almost empty. I wish we had booked a meal instead. My fault for booking a taster session. Im not the sort of person to say i liked something when i didnt. The menu of what would be presented looked very nice but when it arrived on the table i really wasnt impressed with the taste, presentation, quantity or flavours. The staff were polite and the service was great but the actual food / taste and price didnt impress me at all.”

    “We chose the five-course tasting menu with wine flight for our wedding after having the chance to try it earlier this year, and it was absolutely perfect. Our guests are still talking about the incredible presentation and unforgettable flavours. Each dish was beautifully introduced by the chef who prepared it, which made the experience feel even more personal and special. The accompanying wines were spot on and delicious. The service from each staff member was charming and friendly throughout, striking the perfect balance of theatre and precision. Truly a feast for both the eyes and the taste buds! Thank you everyone at Prevost, we will be back.”

    “Went in for a combined Birthday-Anniversary meal as a late lunch just prior to Christmas. Had the 5 Course Tasting Menu. Absolutely spectacular food, beautifully presented and explained by different chefs as each course was brought out. Service was absolutely impeccable as you would expect. Beautiful hotel and setting. We will definitely be visiting again.”
  • Nicola Hewitson
    “Had a fantastic lunch here with friends today - a wonderful menu with some very surprising and delightful dishes. 2 of our group also had the wine pairing, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Our first visit since the move from Cowgate, but we'll definitely be back!”
