Anticipating a rather special lunch and were not disappointed. This is a very inventive menu with a nice touch of including the dates and origins of the dishes – but the rather unsual ‘cracker’ style facts seemed slightly out of place. The set price menu is excellent value but we were too easily swayed by the full menu and enjoyed a fantastic Broth of Lamb and Salamugundy as our starters. It would have been nice if the bread had been warmed and this was probably the most unextraodinary part of the meal Mains were just as difficult to choose but we went for Pig cheeks and the Pigeon . Loads of flavours and a joy to eat. I always know the food is good when my partner stops talking! Service was attentive – although I did have to chase for our drinks when we first arrived but other than that there was always someone on hand to make for a comfortable and easy going Lunch Only dampner was the wine list – I was told this was on a par with other restaurants in the area bit it still made my eyes water! Expensive Lunch but well worth it…
