Gary Jones rejoined Le Manoir in August 1999. He has all the qualities of leadership, organisation skills and is also a truly great craftsman.

Gary worked for two years at the Waterside Inn then for three years at Le Manoir. He started as Chef de Partie and took the position of Sous Chef after one year. He left to become Executive Head Chef for Richard Branson on Necker Island in the Caribbean and then gained his first Michelin star at Homewood Park. 

He then joined Cliveden as the Head Chef in Waldo's restaurant where he gained eight out of ten in the Good Food Guide, a Michelin Star and Four AA Rosettes.

Gary leads the Kitchen Team in training and development. Le Manoir is a magnificent place to develop and grow the next generation of young talented chefs. 

We have training a program in place that transforms raw enthusiasm and commitment into the chefs of the future.
