January 10th. The restaurant was warm and inviting. The staff were lovely from the start. They were very knowledgeable about the food and the wine. The food was amazing, we shared a starter and had a main each and wine then coffee. We couldn’t find room for a dessert as the portions were generous. We would absolutely go again and take our dogs as there is an area for them too.

The food was excellent, but the.gluten free bread actually tasted like bread! The smoked salmon on the sandwiches was fresh and thick, and the prawn sandwich with Marie rose was said to be delicious. The only problem we had was ordering ice cream with chocolate sauce. Mine came with caramel, and when we questioned why the waitress said, the chef had indicated there was wheat in the sauce. Shame it wasn't mentioned on the menu. Will definitely book again, but the.menu needs to indicate what is GF and what isn't.

Food and service were outstanding. A beautiful bar and surroundings. Only thing that let it down were the flickering bright lights directly above when sat at the benches against the wall. Very minor though and overall a gorgeous evening.
