    Cod roe appetizer very tasty. Cod special with lentils was under-seasoned and the advertised spinach and bacon was nowhere to be found on the plate, but despite that, with a bit of salt, it was a satisfying meal. The physical space is warm and lovely, service was attentive and excellent. The fennel herbal tea was new to me and delightful. I’d be happy to return.

    This was a third visit and, having been really impressed with the food previously, I was disappointed this time. The bread under the kidneys starter was inedible and the Cornish cod special was dull. The fish was nicely cooked but there were too many insipid tasting lentils and it needed a third element to add some variety. The service was good.

    Fabulous night out celebrating our son's upcoming adventures overseas. Nice cocktails, delicious food (fancy but not fussy), attentive but not overly so. One of our favourite places for a celebratory meal.

    Lovely table. Fish soup and kidneys very nice - fish soup could have been a little thinner and kidneys a little more tender. Main course Sole and lamb both very nice. Lamb dish served a bit cold but quickly resolved with a salamander heat up. An unexpected glass of wine given with No1’s apologies. Appreciated. Fabulous crème brûlée! Lovely ambience and service. Will be back again ! Thank you No1.

    Lunch set menu was brilliant - main course of venison sausages and polenta mash was particularly amazing. Really great value for money and wonderful service. Thank you

    Fabulous as always. Enjoyed the haddock risotto starter and the bream special main course followed by truffles. Helpful and friendly staff helped with wine choice. Also stayed to chat after service as so cold outside! Thank you!

    Delicious food and attentive but not badgering or pushy. Took our coats on entry and made us feel warm and welcome. Also accommodating to our specific requests for tables. There is only a single vegetarian option (no vegan) but the one that was on offer was fantastic. Perhaps another option would be appreciated though!
