The food was completely delicious. The setting was lovely but it was so quiet and the service little unwelcoming. I would recommend however.

It was a very quiet Sunday lunch - perhaps thanks to the Storm Bert flooding- with only two other tables taken, which did little to soften the rather plain atmosphere. The silver lining was that the ‘roast beef’ was two generous slices of a well executed and flavoursome, medium rare beef fillet at a reasonable price compared to many other‘Sunday roasts’. Nicely done roasted potatoes and root veg with well cooked mixed greens and a manageable Yorkshire pudding. Starters were prettily presented, light and fresh - well judged. Puds again well presented and not overwhelming but well balanced.

Fine food. Tasty chicken dish and a good traditional crumble - a shame that there was no custard!

The food was very good. Two minor complaints. Was a little too salty for my taste. It felt rushed with hardly any gap between courses.
