    Exceptionally done modern British food. The service was flawless, which is impressive considering it opened only a few weeks ago. The Sunday menu was solid, with the highlights being the scotch egg, as well as celeriac. The vibe is nice, lively without being too noisy. A place where you can actually enjoy the food and chat.

    The service was friendly and efficient from start to finish. The standard of food was amongst the best I’ve ever experienced - it’s innovative, tasty and satisfying. Go there if you can.

    Chef James has transformed this little corner pub into a gastro extravaganza. NYE was a Michelin Star menu with plate after plate of unexpected bites offering nuanced, thoughtful flavor profiles. Never have I experienced food in a pub this sophisticated and inspired.

    Great NYE experience. This is a new restaurant and all went without a hitch - lovely efficient and friendly service. The food was overall delicious. Five course tasting menu with a complimentary glass of English Sparkling wine.

    2nd visit in a week. Even better nearer the kitchen. Food choice is excellent. A few rowdy diners but everything was great. Think this place will do very well

    The food is excellent - really tasty and perfectly proportioned. Service was also brilliant - good relaxed atmosphere. The menu is heavy on meat and then fish but there is just about enough for a veggie in the party - would heartily recommend.
