First time visit. What I enjoyed the most - welcoming and attentive staff - no time pressure to order or give up table, specials menu and food presentation, choice of attractive room settings, relaxed and dog friendly. It came highly recommended. I see why.

Lovely old building in a nice location by the river. Service was very friendly and efficient. Food was delicious, some different choices of starters and mains as well as pub usuals. Not cheap but worth it for the quality of food.

Our group enjoyed the meal, food was good, service was attentive, pacing was just right for a lightly constrained timing. A little pricey perhaps, but you get what you pay for.

We had a lovely afternoon. Food was excellent and the venue was warm and cosy. Only one small thing, after we had our meal we weren’t asked if we would like anything else - desserts, tea/coffee. I had to go to the bar to ask some time later and also had to ask for the bill. A little more attentive and the whole experience would have been excellent.

We enjoyed the chicken & chorizo ballotine, the bone marrow burger and the dill herring with potato salad. The soup of the day was also delicious. Three of us dined and all enjoyed the food. No complaints.
