This year’s Michelin Guide for Great Britain and Ireland has been released - and some restaurants in Gloucestershire made the list.
The list provides all the restaurants that have received and retained a Michelin star this year.
The Michelin Guide is produced by the French tyre company Michelin, which has been going since 1904 and can award up to three Michelin stars for excellence to a select few establishments.
In this year's list, there are 19 new one stars, 5 new two stars and 1 new three-starred restaurant across the country.

Here are all the restaurants which have one Michelin star in Gloucestershire in the 2022 run.
Gloucestershire Michelin star restaurants in 2022
La Champignon Sauvage
Location: 24-28 Suffolk Road, Cheltenham, GL50 2AQ
Cuisine: Modern Cuisine
The guide says: “For over 30 years, David and Helen Everitt-Matthias' brightly decorated restaurant has provided a ‘special occasion’ spot in the historic spa town of Cheltenham. The couple make a great team: Helen is in charge of the décor and keenly oversees the service, while David can be found behind the stoves day-in-day-out.
“David enthusiastically seeks out the best of British ingredients to showcase in classically based French dishes which employ modern techniques and exhibit some original elements. There is a lightness of touch to many, like fillet of Cornish mackerel with kohlrabi and avocado, while others display bold, robust flavours, such as Brecon venison with parsnip purée and bitter chocolate. The seasons mean everything here and he isn’t afraid to use some lesser-known ingredients. Desserts are a highlight and the set priced menu is great value.”
Michelin Green star restaurant in Gloucestershire 2022
Restaurants earning a Michelin Green star are recognised for “gastronomy and sustainability”.
Daylesford Organic Farm
Location: Daylesford, GL56 0YG
Cuisine: Modern British
The guide says: “A stylishly rustic eatery attached to a farm shop: dine in the ‘Legbar’ for charcuterie and nibbles, the ‘Old Spot’ for pizzas and wood-roasted specials or the main ‘Trough Café’, where at night, candle-lit suppers step things up a gear. Everything is organic, with much of the produce coming from the farm.”
