Steak was tasty but tough as a boot. Not the best I’ve had from them.

We went for the 2 course menu and it was excellent, generous portions, reasonably priced and a reallly lovely food. We had the mackerel/orzo pasta salad to start and both had the cottage pie. Perfect. Staff were great. Would definitely come again.

Came last year with friends and the food was amazing. Unfortunately last night it wasn’t as good when we came back to show my family. Monkfish was overcooked and small amount of fish. The puddings weren’t very nice. The brownie was dry and needed a sauce. The stick toffee was dry and overcooked with no sauce or taste. The cheesecake also lacked a clear taste. The sirloin steak was really good and so were the kids sausage and mash.

We ate at Mustard Seed on Saturday evening . We booked at 8:30 pm as that was the earliest available and we were happy to eat at that time. The food was delicious and our servers were polite and courteous. However , we felt our entire meal was rushed. We ordered cocktails and had no time to drink them and our starters arrived , very quickly followed by our mains and then despite asking for a little time before our desserts they were served very quickly too. We had put our cocktails to one side and ordered wine which we drank. Following our desserts being served nobody returned to our table to ask if we wanted more wine or tea/ coffee. We sat for quite a while and then we went to the desk and paid . As much as the quality of the food was really good our overall dining experience wasn’t great . Looking at others around us I think we were just unfortunate , but based on our experience we wouldn’t return .
