    Some confusion with the menus as to what is available where. We wanted to book so had to go upstairs but the menu downstairs was not available upstairs. I feel all the menus are a bit limited . The meat dishes are excellent but the vegetarian no so good.

    The service and food were excellent, sat upstairs for the first time, so much better than downstairs. Hopefully next time I'll be seated upstairs again.

    We had a lovely unhurried lunch and found the food delicious, carefully presented and the portions just right. The atmosphere was relaxed, the staff friendly and the far-reaching view beyond the lake was lovely, even in January. My friend was pleasantly surprised to find that her cottage pie had been made with chopped rather than minced beef and told me it was delicious. I really enjoyed the vegan curry, particularly the textures and it was nice to see that the ingredients were locally sourced, including some from their own kitchen gardens. We hope to be back again soon.

We look forward to welcoming you back to the Grain Store again soon.
