This year’s Michelin Guide for Great Britain and Ireland has been released - and an Isle of Wight restaurant made the list.
Seaview Hotel is among the venues listed in the Michelin Star Guide for 2022 as it retained its Bib Gourmand accolade.
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.

The guide says: “The Aquitania is a delightfully intimate restaurant which upholds the Seaview Hotel’s proud culinary tradition. The team are warm and welcoming and the daily set menu bursts with the island’s artisan ingredients. Dishes are presented in a modern style and fish plays an integral role.”
Marketing manager Sophia Brading said: "The team at The Seaview Hotel are delighted to be included in the Michelin Guide this year. We consider it an honour.
"As well as being in the Michelin Guide under new head chef Mark Wyatt we have retained The Seaview Hotel's 2 AA Rosettes.
"We are one of only three restaurants on the Isle of Wight to be awarded 2 AA Rosettes.
"The menu is beset with dishes carefully created using quality local ingredients and we appreciate awards like these are achieved because of the passion and hard work of our people. We are grateful for a team who make everything about eating at The Seaview Hotel a truly wonderful experience.
"The hotel also got the silver award for the accommodation too, from the AA."
There were three other Isle of Wight restaurants named in the prestigious Michelin Guide for Great Britain and Ireland last year, as previously reported.
They are The Terrace, Yarmouth, The Hambrough, Ventnor, and The Hut, Colwell.
