    What a wonderful Sunday lunch. Pork belly and Beef Wellington were equally divine. Our daughter's rated the hash browns as the " best ever" and rated the children's menu options highly .The Christmas pudding was delicious according to my husband and the trifle I had contained the best custard I ever tasted. Overall beautifully presented food, attentive service and a laid back, welcoming atmosphere. We will definitely recommend to our friends and return soon. Thank you for the birthday card too, which was a lovely touch.

    The most beautiful restaurant especially in a window seat overlooking the river. The service is spot on- attentive but not at all intrusive eg when our water ran out it was quickly and quietly replaced before we’d even noticed. We were not hurried along and they didn’t rush to give us our bill. And the food is simply lovely; very attractively presented, very tasty and I just wish I could have eaten more. Can’t recommend enough
