    Absolutely delicious meal. We were a party of five and enjoyed several dishes on the menu. I could describe each dish which we chose but not one was disappointing. Even the selection of breads was impressive. Medlar is our favourite restaurant in London and we have visited several of those with Michelin stars. We live in the north of England and the journey south is certainly worth the journey.
