    Lovely lunch here with 2 friends . I have Coeliac Disease . Menu items were well marked and our server Ricky , very kindly offered and double checked my options with the chef so as to confirm there would be no cross contamination. I ordered the fries to start as I cannot have the flower pot bread they serve . I had the gf mushroom soup and the quinoa fritters. All delicious! I would highly recommend this restaurant for the service , the food and warmth of everyone who works there ! A very safe place to eat for people with a gluten allergy !

    About 5 years ago, we first visited Cottage. We hadn’t been back simply because it was so noisy you couldn’t have a conversation. We don’t tecall what day of the eeek we were there. We were delighted in our visit today,Sunday, as the music was not too loud and diners did not have to shout to be heard across the table. The soft lighting was perfect and the service was terrific. The food was so good, we’ve decided to return sometime soon!

    This Prix Fixe Christmas lunch was one of the best meals my husband and I have EVER had. The Amuse roast chestnut latte with vanilla foam topping was unbelievably delicious. I will try to replicate it. The raw bar selection was next - so fresh, so delicious, especially the oysters. My husband ordered the ample NY steak, cooked as ordered, enough that we had left over for breakfast today. I had the crusted salmon in a cauliflower risotto. Finally the best English Christmas pudding ever, and I am English. Fruity, moist and the light glacé sauce completed our meal. Truly outstanding service from Oumo and all the staff who were efficient, timely and patient.
