We booked early and although the restaurant was almost empty the service (though charming) was slow. As we wanted a quick lunch we ordered sandwiches -my friend had a steak sandwich (£10) and I had a Club sandwich (£11). Both were on thick-cut sourdough which was very hard to cut/bite through. My Club sandwich was described on the menu as 'chicken, egg, lettuce and bacon' but the egg was scrambled and cold, no bacon but ham instead, and the lettuce was tired and limp, so it was tasteless and boring. My friend's sandwich was equally underwhelming with cold steak and soggy sauerkraut. On the plus side, our chips were good! We'd both had good food on previous visits, and really like the ambience, so it was a shame to find the food so disappointing this time.

A lovely place to eat but perhaps asked for a table outside the main eating area because that can get quite noisy. The fish we had was perfectly cooked, the starters were sublime, nothing was over seasoned and all the flavours were subtle.

This was my second visit and was a little disappointing after the first which was excellent. Service was slow, we had to ask for our side dish twice before it was brought to our table. The sandwiches were average, lacking filling and the side salad limp. The venue is beautiful and the concept great. I hope for better if I visit again.

Very unwelcoming and the English breakfast was very poor, with cardboard sliced white bread served cold, without butter. They had run out of granola and didn’t let us know until they served all the other food. The staff didn’t have a clue what to do or what was going on. We were very disappointed generally.

Friendly helpful service from experienced staff. The food options were good and the quality was excellent, very tasty and good portion sizes. We went for the Tarte Tatin for 2 for dessert and that was well worth the wait.
