As always, whenever we are able to spend time here, we enjoy the lovely food and the great happy service. We are both just so glad that places such as Clavell's are re-opening finally. We will certainly return soon to enjoy more of their menu and the wine. Thanks

A very relaxed atmosphere - there was no problem having a table outside but staff were very helpful in moving us to an inside table when the rain began. I like dogs but there were a lot of well behaved hounds inside - best avoided if you have a fear of dogs!

Really enjoyed our evening. Great food and portion size so felt that value for money was excellent. If I am being critical it felt quite busy and cramped but that doesn’t take away from the overall experience which was super!

Food was faultless! Absolutely delicious. Just feel that a few more details could be better to protect customers from Covid. Menus are made of paper/cardboard, whereas a laminated menu would be easier to clean. Waitresses should really wear masks when serving, particularly as we saw one with a plate in her hand shouting an order to another at the other side of the garden. Finally we had to wipe our own table when we arrived. Normally none of this would matter, but if the advice here were followed then Clavell's would feel a lot safer.

Booking was easy and arrival and seating was also good. One of our meals came out very late and had clearly been overlooked. Not all the meals were hot enough and the delay with one meal didn’t help. Otherwise the food was good.

Beautiful sunny weekend, so pleased to see you busy and bustling and coping with COVID. Best of luck with your very short season. Hope you can save a few quid and get through the winter. Best of luck and thanks for a lovely couple of visits whilst we were camping nearby at Smedmore. x

Quite expensive, roast beef possibly microwaved to heat. Good choice of menu. Goof veggies except carrot tops needed scrubbing better.
