Square Meal review of Griffin Inn:
A model English country inn – 16th century, beamed, timbered and inglenooked – with a menu of modern British cooking that is hard to fault. Simple descriptions belie impeccable sourcing - game from nearby shoots, hand-dived scallops – and the use of local, mostly organic, suppliers. Seasonal finds might include roast red-legged partridge wrapped in prosciutto, pancetta and potato rosti, and strawberry and summer berry roulade. Some of the best dishes marry a fondness for spicing with seafood, a delicate tuna carpaccio, perhaps, marinated in cumin with Moroccan spiced couscous, or whole Cajun spiced black bream with a refreshing citrus yogurt. Curiously, the cosmopolitan food fits the classic country pub look. Bedrooms are well worth a weekend break – especially those in the main part of the inn – Coach House rooms come into their own in summer.
