We stayed at Carey’s Manor for my husband’s 40th and we chose this French restaurant to enjoy a meal whilst we stayed. The service was lovely and the food was delicious. It was a great start to his birthday celebrations

I would not normally choose to have French food but every course was cooked to perfection. Our waiter was funny, quick to bring food and knowledgeable of each dish. We have a 16 month old daughter so the wife and I don’t normally go out on our own anymore but we did on this rare occasion as it was part of her Christmas present and oh what a joy as the meal was amazing.

Good choice of dishes with set menu, Al la carte or light bite options. Food was well cooked, hot and nicely presented. Service was good and staff were friendly. Typically French decor in great location. We will happily go back.

The food and service was outstanding and not overpriced relative to the quality. The wine list was also extensive. The sad thing was that only 13 people were dining on the night we visited - hence the low score for ambience. Do patronise such a wonderful venue - as has been said before use it or lose it. That would be a crying shame xx
