The prawns in chilli hot oil and the toastspread with tomatoes and onions were good, so much so we ordered themagain when we returned for Sunday lunch. Sunday roasts with 'all thetrimming's' - we tried beef and pork - had everything a Sunday roast shouldhave. Somewhere rather spiffing to go' (Fay Machsler, Evening Standard)

Really delicious, would recommend the pork belly, samosas, fish curry and the shepherds pie! £19 for a set menu at lunch is amazing value, can’t wait to go back and try more dishes.

One of the best meals we’ve had for a long while, food was superb and we (6 of us) pretty much covered the menu! My only comment would be that service wasn’t the best, we had quite a variety of wine across courses, they hold the wine at the service station so they can pour (which is lovely) but they don’t keep a proper check so we sat around quite a bit waiting to be topped up, also at each course the wine arrived either part way through or in terms of the start course - after we’d finished Perfectly pleasant, nothing was too much trouble and the matre de is superb when involved

We all decided to meet up in Richmond as an early Xmas celebration together. We were very early and I was grateful for outdoor seating with a high fence that blocked the icy winds. We were kindly invited inside despite the time (they were still setting up). The food was amazing. We had a lovely time reminiscing and thankfully the waiting staff gave us space. We will go back for other celebrations based on this
