    We had a lovely post Wedding brunch for our daughter and her new husband the food was outstanding it’s such a cosy place to eat. There were 12 of us as our American family joined us so we had the whole place to ourselves. They had never experienced anything like it before and were blown away. It’s the perfect spot for brunch and never disappoints.

    Lovely intimate restaurant with a laid back vibe, service was great, friendly yet professional. Calm and organised kitchen, perfect music creating a wonderful atmosphere. The food was incredible, so tasty, fresh and different, loved the set menu, enjoyed trying things wouldn’t normally order. Small plates but more than enough, left feeling very full and satisfied. Perfect for a special occasion.

    We are lucky that this was not our first visit and once again the food and service were exceptional. We enjoyed each and every course along with some excellent wine. Could not fault a single thing. David

    Chef's Table is such a lovely experience. This time, we went for Sunday lunch. As always, the food was delicious, with fresh locally sourced ingredients used to create delightful plates of food. The service was excellent - friendly and approachable. This is such a gem of a restaurant. Thank you for having us and making us so welcome.
