    We were a large party of 14 and the staff could not have been more attentive and helpful. With all the extras we ordered, clearing away and dealing with the variety of drinks orders. All with smiles on their faces. But on top of the great service from the moment we all arrived, the food was excellent! Very large plates full of roast dinners. All the extras of stuffing, gravy jugs and cauliflower cheese and not one part of our order was wrong and everything on the menu available. Once we also came to pay and leave they were still very accommodating and chatty and they made us all feel extremely welcome. Would highly recommend.

    The best dinner in ages. Every course was delicious. The Parmesan butter with the sourdough, I could have eaten that for seconds. The lasagne lived up to the hype, the garlic bun was crisp and so garlicky and rocket salad was simple but the perfect side. Yum. I hate tiramisu but decided to try it and I’m so glad I did as it was perfect along with the chocolate sorbet. Loved the little venue and the staff were all welcoming. Wished the deli was open when we came as I’d definitely have been taking some bits home with us.

    We had a lovely family meal at the Red Cow. Nice to find somewhere open on a Monday. Food was delicious, service was great and there was a lovely open fire. Would happily come back to eat here again.

    Service was great - the guy serving us helped everyone with cocktail choices and also advised on foo options. We also asked if we could go to the cantina after our dinner and drinks and he spoke with the hostess who organised this for us - reserved us a table and our waiter took us down there. All my friends loved the food and the cocktails are just as good! I've been a few times before - before the refurb and moving upstairs and i just love it!
