   Our first visit to this restaurant and we shall certainly return. The decor and ambience was very inviting, the range of food choices good and so was the quality. The service was very pleasant and efficient.

   We were delighted to try out this local sustainable restaurant and I briefed them about my dietary requirements. However the service initially was woefully poor but was taken over by the manager who was excellent. The parsnip soup was beautiful but without the chilli and coriander oil. Garlic seemed to lace most things on the menu which made our choices somewhat limited. My lemon sole was fairly tasteless but not overcooked. It came with the wrong salad. Malcolm’s duck was ok but he had to abandon the sauce and red cabbage because of the garlic?…please don't put garlic in everything! Not sure we will rush back but we will keep an eye out for the spring menu…..

   We had a fabulous evening of food and wine. The fish menu/choices and combinations were just the ticket

   The food was well-presented but lacked any particular characteristc. Moreover, the main course portions were quite small. The choice of dishes was quite restrictive. The wines were expensive. For instance, a satistfactory but quite ordinary generic Pinot Noir was £55 for a bottle. I would guess that it would have retailed at between £10 - £15. The service was excellent - both efficient and friendly. The ambience was spacious and pleasant. The absence of piped music was a plus. Overall, I think this restaurant is too expensive for what it offers. There are much more interesting eating experiences with in a mile or two of this restaurant - e.g. Table du Marche, the Bull and Last and Parakeet.
