A MICHELIN-starred restaurateur has opened a new venue in York.

Adam Jackson made his name at the Black Swan in Oldstead, near Helmsley, where he won three AA Rosettes in 2010 and a Michelin Star in 2012. He has now taken on his own restaurant, The Park, at Marmadukes Hotel in St Peter’s Grove, York, which opened last week.

Adam said: “To be part of HRH Group is incredibly exciting and I am thoroughly looking forward to getting started. We will be opening our doors to the public at Marmadukes Town House Hotel and I genuinely cannot wait to introduce our guests to our beautiful new surroundings.”

Philip Barker, chairman of HRH Group, which runs Marmadukes, said: “We are delighted that Adam has chosen to join us. He is extremely committed to delivering first-class product-driven food, which has earned him a strong reputation, loyal followers and rave reviews. This is a very exciting time for Marmadukes Town House Hotel and Adam is a very big part of what is to come.”
