Always lovely. A few small niceties have been stopped (like warm complimentary bread rolls with meals) but 2 course with wine deal is still good value and the food is always outstanding.

Our lunch party of 12 ladies for a birthday celebration all enjoyed their mains, after sharing a delicious haloumi and foccacia with dips. Thank you for allowing me to bring the champagne! We sat outside on the terrace, which was perfect. Nice and quiet so we could chat in comfort. There was a varied choice of mains and salads to choose from. Would definitely recommend Good Grace
