We had a lovely meal at the Star today. But for the price we paid we felt the portions were quite small. We asked to be seated by the fire as we arrived early. But we were told the tables were booked out and so we were seated in a corner. We noticed when we left that the seats by the fire were still empty.

Excellent meal for my 60th Birthday. Superb and attentive service. Fresh local produce cooked with flair and panache. Devine Chicken and ham hock terrine, the belly pork melted in my mouth. The black pudding scotch egg tasty and succulent. I died and went to heaven when I tasted the sticky toffee pudding. Excellent fare. Thankyou so much for all your hard work. I couldn't recommend anywhere more.

It is a great place from walking through the doors into a well stocked bar ,and the amount of smartly presented and polite staff is good to see . We had a little wait as we came as a large party got a round of drinks in and chatted till we were shown through. The restaurant area is well lit and the decor is well picked . Table perfectly set out for our Sunday lunch . Most had all three courses , I had the oxtail in Yorkshire pudding to start , the roast top side for my main (perfectly
