    Yet another superb dining experience at Cheal’s last evening. In all the meals we have enjoyed there, they have remained consistently outstanding throughout. The experienced and professional staff (who never refer to us as ‘guys’ or ‘mate’), the lovely comfortable surroundings and the exciting choice of dishes all add up to an evening of sheer enjoyment. Can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough.

    The service and quality of food are outstanding. Although the restaurant was quiet at lunchtime there was a comfortable ambience. All the staff were able to make us feel welcome and comfortable.
