    As a frequent customer of the Duncow. I found the menu disappointing as there was only one special main. Not the usual choice and no fish.

    Great service and never rushed us even though we were slightly late from a walk beforehand. Everyone of the 8 thoroughly enjoyed their food.

    The food was good and more unusual. My fish stew was delicious and my husband enjoyed his duck very much too.
