We visit Quod regularly and after today's meal I question why we hadn't been for a while. First course good although needed to borrow someone else's teeth to crack the croutons. Calves liver superb, could have been a little more pink but so difficult to do in a large restaurant with thin slices, mash, kale and bacon and tasty sauce set the whole meal off. Our waitress who we now know well was as good as ever and at £34.60 a head great value. See you again soon!

Our third time here, once again not disappointed. Luckily for us we had made a reservation, there was a queue of people waiting. Our food order was taken quickly, the only minor thing was that our drinks were served in a warm glass so the drinks were not as cold as we would have like. All our food was delicious. will certainly be booking again.
