Michael Lloyd has joined Macdonald Compleat Angler at Marlow, Buckinghamshire, as head chef responsible for the stylish, AA two rosette Riverside Restaurant. He and his team will also be looking after banqueting for both business and private events in the hotel’s function suites and board rooms.

Bringing with him a wealth of fine-dining experience, Lloyd previously worked alongside the executive chef at Cannizaro House Hotel in Wimbledon, which has three AA rosettes for its excellent cuisine.

Earlier in his career he was employed as chef de partie at the Vineyard at Stockross, near Newbury, and also worked at Heckfield Place in Hampshire.

Delighted to be joining the team at Macdonald Compleat Angler, Lloyd said: “I’m currently looking at building for the future through the development of the menu, with the aim of putting the hotel back on the map as offering exceptional and beautifully-presented cuisine”.

In keeping with the Macdonald dining ethos, the best provenance available is sourced ranging from the finest Scottish beef, outdoor reared pork and free range chickens to market-fresh wild fish, mainly from UK waters, and Fairtrade coffee.

Overlooking the Thames, the Riverside Restaurant is open to both non-residents and hotel guests for breakfast, lunch, dinner and afternoon tea seven days a week, with outside dining on the terrace on warmer days.
