    Nice roast dinner today for 2 of us.We chose beef and pork, both very tasty and good portion size. The day was marginally spoiled by being very close to a very load group on the next table.

    We are regulars at The Duke. As ever, Brandon and the team produced excellent fare and service in pleasant surroundings. Quite clear that other diners were also enjoying themselves.

    Absolutely faultless. The Duke is a fantastic restaurant but the Sunday Lunch is incredible. Has a meal with friends today, kicking off with some fantastic cocktails. Food and service were excellent as always. Very highly recommended.

    We pre-ordered as a large group, we were surprised when the food appeared within 10 minutes of sitting down. The order was delivered correctly. However whilst all group members found the food tasty it was all lukewarm which was disappointing. Table service could have been better in asking if we needed more drinks etc. Overall we all felt it was good food but clearly could have been hotter, being served on cold plates did not help.

    Love The Duke! The Sunday lunch is outstanding and Brandon is a superb front of house. We’re lucky to have such a brilliant restaurant in our village.

    Very nice evening, all steaks cooked as requested, varied sides and sauces to choose from included in the steak night price. Unusual and different desserts, tried the Mochi coconut and Mango, unfortunately first choice strawberry and cream Mochi had run out . The Duke is well decorated and tables are not over crowded. The real fire was lit and made a nice ambience. All staff were very attentive and pleasant. All in all a very nice evening. Will definitely be returning.
