Hardens Guide Places Northcote In The Top 10 Restaurants In The UK

This week Hardens announced Northcote as a runner up in the Remy Martin XO Excellence Awards which highlights the overall best restaurants across the UK. The award is a result of painstaking analysis of the survey of 8000 restaurant goers for the publication of The Hardens UK Restaurant Guide 2010.

Northcote is described in the guide as "not just one of Lancashire's Best, but one of the best in the UK too - using local ingredients in their faultless cooking, it is as good as ever".

Richard Harden, Editor of hardens "there are still frankly too few culinary highlights in the North West of England, so it's wonderful the way Northcote stands as a real beacon of quality - for food, for service and for ambience - that's truly notable at the national level".

1. Mr Underhill's, Shropshire
2. Gidleigh Park, Devon
3. Waterside Inn, Berkshire
4. Marcus Wareing at the Berkeley, London
