About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Charming
Neighbourhood gem

A traditional restaurant complete with low ceilings, beams, real fires and a cosy bar still frequented by the locals, it’s the pride of place pizza oven that makes Caesar @ Dolphin stand out from many village inns. That and the seasonal menu of big-flavoured dishes underpinned by strong technical skill

A friendly welcome. Prompt service. Very good menu selection: although five of the six of us chose the salmon 'special'! The beef tagliatelle was also very good. One son commented that Caesar's can always be counted on for a good meal. When they saw the shared seafood platter on a neighbouring table they suffered food envy! A lovely, relaxed evening. Thank you.
