Interior was very welcoming, staff were friendly and helpful, had a 'hidden gem' feel. Warmly lit but not too bright.
The warmed wood pigeon starter (with poached pears and candied hazelnuts) was one of the best starters we've ever had, like something out of MasterChef!
Overall a lovely experience and highly recommended 🤠

On reading the reviews I feel I’ve been robbed of great service and great food as today, I had neither. Our lunch took over half an hour to come and when my haddock Kedgeree arrived - there was one lonely piece of fish in a whole plate of rice and peas. The poached egg was hard cooked and there was no seasoning. It was a disgrace.
There are so many nice places to eat around this area so unfortunately I would not return here.

We enjoyed a very long lunch here yesterday. The menu was great but the service was the highlight. Nothing was too much trouble. Food was delicious and didn't feel rushed to give up our table. Thank you for a lovely lunch. We will return and will recommend everyone to visit

We only had a cup of coffee each adult, a glass of apple juice, a piece of Victoria sponge, and water for the dog. We ate and drank outside in a marquee. We were served by a very competent young man. A very nice morning coffee all round.

Excellent food, brilliant service and great atmosphere. We had dinner and went back following morning for breakfast! No kids menu but they adapted main menu and my girls loved it. Also very dog friendly. We will definitely be back.

Excellent set up outside. Rigorous covid procedures; sanitiser, wipes and tissues on every table.You can still see the staff's big smiles under the facemasks!
The crab salad starter was light and refreshing. The beer battered haddock and chip outstanding, the fish was incredibly soft. A tempting selection of cakes were on offer too. Cargill's Sunday roasts are not worth missing also.
Highly recommended.
