Award-winning food and exceptional service.
Le Talbooth Restaurant in Dedham, Essex, offers an unrivalled dining experience. The combination of stunning food, created through a skilful mixture of the classic and the exciting, and outstanding service ensure that dining at this riverside restaurant will be an experience never to forget.
Le Talbooth riverside restaurant is all about great food, great service and the great location. We’re certain you’ll love it and want to return with anyone that did not join you on your first visit.
The restaurant, terrace and lawn hug the banks of the River Stour – perfectly located and creating an artist’s backdrop for lunch or dinner.
The food that we serve at Le Talbooth is carefully designed, meticulously prepared and exquisitely presented. And then there’s the taste. Taste is never easy to communicate in words so we thought we would talk you through a few menu choices…
Citrus cured hand dived scallops with dill gremolata, keta caviar and pickled ginger, or Thetford Forest venison carpaccio, mustard croquette, golden beetroot and apple to start.
Poached baby monkfish tail in nori seaweed watercress, saffron potatoes and gambas or fillet of dry aged Dedham Vale beef rossini, rosti potato, spinach and Madeira jus for your main course, and maybe the Madagascan 64% chocolate and black cherry millionaire, pistachio, honeycomb or apple and gooseberry soufflé with vanilla milk ice-cream for dessert, followed by coffee and hand-made chocolates, or perhaps the 2010 Clos Dady, Sauternes French dessert wine to complete your meal.

Dress Guidance at Le Talbooth: We are often asked about the dress code in the restaurant. Many of our guests dress up for a visit to Le Talbooth and as such feel uncomfortable when fellow diners are not suitable attired. For this reason we ask that our guests adhere to a ‘smart casual’ dress code and not arrive in ‘short shorts’ and flip flops. Thank you.

We keep an extensive wine list in stock for all occasions. Wines from all countries and many varieties are served by the glass, half bottles and full bottles.
Larger formats are available for those of you seeking a long and lazy lunch or an evening dinner that creeps more closely to the next day than the one in which it began.
We have wines by the glass beginning at £5, as well as a healthy stock of celebrated vintages such as the 1992 Château Petrus, Pomerol. We are delighted and honoured to have Moët as our house Champagne, as well as a 1996 Dom Pérignon.
Whatever you decide, our wine sommelier is on hand (if you need him) to assist in your choices and pair your wines with your food.
You will find Le Talbooth warm and open with a contemporary interior beneath the 17th Century eaves and you’ll find our team are unstuffy, welcoming and happy to help.
