Highly enjoyable lunch, really interesting flavours for the Sunday set menu especially the scotch egg. Seasoning was on point with everything being at its max of deliciousness so cannot complain. Service was great from start to finish, we found a small piece of plastic in our buratta so informed the server. They comped us some dessert which was a nice surprise. We left feeling like the place had superb hospitality, it was very relaxing and hit on all levels. Can’t wait to come back to try to tasting menu.
