Very nice breakfast and lovely setting. Tiny bit slow with the service even though it wasn’t too busy and the portions were somewhat petite for the price but very tasty and very warm staff

A recommendation from the Michelin Guide App. A quiet lunch date with my wife, we had the set menu which was a selection from the main menu, The tempura prawns, haddock and Crumble were fantastic, Truffle triple cooked chips were not overpowering as is the case with many truffle options elsewhere. The whipped Stilton and sourdough was devine followed by the gammon, topped with the perfect egg. All of the staff we encountered were welcoming, caring which was a breath of fresh air , as nothing was too much trouble. A great first visit.

Unfortunately one of our party was disappointed with her meal. It was undercooked. Spoke to the serving staff and she did give options to replace the meal. The steak meal was delicious. It was very noisy in the restaurant and hence conversation around the table was difficult. Overall a nice evening.

Delicious food and friendly service. We were there at a reasonably quiet time of day (2-4). Despite being a high-end restaurant, very child friendly and accommodating team.
