My group of friends thoroughly enjoyed lunch from this year’s Festive Menu. The food was delicious and service excellent. The portions were amazing and really good value. The table was nicely decorated with… festive accessories. The Mulled wine is highly recommended too. The warmth was also very welcome on such a cold day! Congratulations to all the staff at The Waterwitch!

I always love The Water Witch but a weird thing happened whilst eating there last night. I was spoilt for choice and it took quite a while to decide what to eat - and that never happens. I’ve been vegetarian pretty much my whole life and I’m now vegan so one or two options is the most I’ve ever had on a pub or restaurant menu, but there must have… been about six really great vegan meals on that menu. The food and drinks were delicious, as always, but I felt the need to write a review to thank you for a new experience. I’m looking forward to the next visit so I can
