Fulham's Harwood Arms has won yet another accolade, being listed as one of the Best Value Michelin Star Menus in the UK.

Michelin say star restaurants are known for their extravagant settings, amazing food, and top quality service, but perhaps not so much for being fantastic value

But if you know where to look, you can find Michelin star menus for the same price as you would happily spend at your local Indian restaurant.

The Harwood Arms is included among the top star menus with prices under £30 across the UK, alongside Bohemia restaurant in Jersey, which offers overall best value with a three course meal for £19.99 and and Arbutus in Soho, which has a three course lunch for £23.

The Harwood, which is also London’s only Michelin star pub charges £25 for three courses, or two courses for £20 at lunchtimes from Tuesday till Friday.

This good value award contrasts with the recent verdict on another well known local restaurant, Hammersmith's famous River Cafe which was given the dubious accolade of Most Overpriced Restaurant in the new edition of Harden's London Restaurants.

In the 24th edition of Harden's guide, the riverside restaurant, whose celebrity diners recently included actor George Clooney and his new bride Amal and Stella McCartney and her husband Alasdhair Willis was slammed by the guide as "overcrowded" and "impersonal" with "uneventful" dishes coming at "merciless prices".
