Louise We had a wonderful dinner last night celebrating my birthday. We were warmly welcomed and seated to our table swiftly. We had a wonderful spot next to the amazing fire place, which the staff kept the fire roaring all evening, making it a very comfortable environment to dine in. Our drinks came swiftly and the evening flowed nicely.
We sampled two menu’s one was the children’s menu, which had humble classics but still served in an elegant manner. The servers ensured that both children were included throughout the evening, asking them which cutlery they’d like to use and how their meals were, for example. Very thoughtful.
The evening menu was delightful, all dishes seasonally selected and all had a little intriguing element, which highlighted the chef experimental side with flavours. I had the duck salad to start, which was delicious. Perhaps a little too much dressing for me but packed with flavour, complimenting the duck. For main I had the Gurnard, a fish I had not sampled before. Cooked and seasoned to perfection it was full of flavour. My final dish was the crumble. The crumble was mixed with walnuts and almonds, which absolutely worked! Topped with cream vanilla ice cream and served in a hot iron pan, it was the perfect end to the meal. If you’re looking for something sweet but don’t fancy a full dish I would recommend sharing the crumble between two, there is more than enough!
From food, to cocktails, to services, the evening was a wonderful treat. For a high end restaurant the portions were generous and we look forward to attending again.
