Pea Porridge

As quaint as its folksy name, this charmingly unpretentious restaurant occupies what was an old cottage-cum-bakery, with the original ovens still intact, lots of exposed brick, beams, wood floors & plainly dressed tables. The mood is informal & the kitchen puts its faith in local & seasonal raw materials (including game) for a raft of appealing dishes in the Mediterranean/British style. Typical offerings might include grilled mackerel fillet with peperonata & brown shrimps, osso bucco, risotto milanese with gremolata or a hare cassoulet for two to share.
