    Bouchon is one of the best restaurants in NE England, the kitchen is on excellent form and £26 for a 3 course lunch is outstanding value for money. Greg and the team always make you feel welcome, it is a very well run restaurant.

    We had a lovely meal at Bouchon for my sister’s birthday. It’s a great spot for fresh, flavourful food with an authentic and cosy atmosphere. Not only was the food delicious but the staff were very attentive and friendly. We will definitely be back and highly recommend if you’re in the area!
