    Atmosphere, decoration and ambience was outstanding. Cocktails were creative and very delicious but rather overpriced Very disappointed in the cakes: mouse was very sharp, cheesecake was tasteless, shortbread was thin and most unlike shortbread I have had ever had before. Could do with changing those. We had a table by the door: very draughty : suggested they could do with blocking the table with a draft excluder around the table. Apart from those comments would definitely give it anither try.

    We have been to The Poet a few times now and on every occasion we have enjoyed it immensely. Tom and the team take great care to ensure that all our food requirements are met and they go above and beyond with attention to detail. The atmosphere is always convivial and the food is outstanding. There's a very nice wine list too.

    We were sitting in the new dining room area which gave the 5 of us plenty of space, and allowed the dog to keep a watch out! Great atmosphere and good accoustics of locals, diners and general pub ‘coming and goings’. The stilton soup was phenomenal and 3 of the group chose the orange posset which has raised this quirky desert to new levels.
