We take the classics and make them better.

    Relaxed unhurried lunch of well executed food with friendly informal service. Atmospheric decor with a good mix of locals popping in for a pint and scratchings (a must) and others seeking a different take on sunday lunch.

    Everything was delicious, exciting combinations of ingredients. The fluffy Gorgonzola went so well with rhubarb, and the Lambs’ hearts, and duck ragu on pasta were so satisfying to eat. Unfussy, flavourful food and wine. Great service. Wish we could come every week.

    The food was great. The terrine starter was very, very good. We had pork shoulder from the grill and the lunchtime special which was a kind of pork casserole. Both really tasty. The side of garlicky cabbage was awesome. The wine selection was rather limited (2 reds, 2 whites, an orange and a fizz) and we liked the Pinot best.
