There’s normal restaurant food and there’s elite bistros food - it a big difference and for a small price difference. We had a most glorious Christmas Eve lunch with 8 adults and 3 toddlers and felt like we were in a private dining room. Service was superb, food was excellent and the family atmosphere was memorably calm and loving. Thanks sticky walnut for such a great start to Christmas.

Good pub grub. Service was slow but ok. Table needed a good clean, felt sticky. Otherwise, good value for money, fairly busy. I would recommend booking if you want to eat.
