    Duck egg and pork pie starters were wonderful. Jacobs Ladder and COD mains were ok, not amazing. Avoid Baked Alaska at all cost! Staff and service are a pleasure as is the room itself.

    Make sure you come here at least once before you die. Even the gnocchi (which I'm not keen on) was amazing!

    The mac'n'cheese pasta easily serves two if not more! Order the burrata as a starter and share it!

    Get the quail to start or else. The pesto with the halibut will ruin all other pestos for you.

    Rather disappointed from the food. Super strange combinations and not necessarily great. Decor is great. Fancy, standard pricing for type of restaurant.

    Avoid. Magnificent Ambiance and good service but very poor value for money. £15.75 per small glass of Malbec, £18.00 for a Vol au Vent, £28.12 for Mac and Cheese. Fine dining prices, pub grub quality.
