Vines in Kettering

Not a review of the services provided by Barton Hall but unfortunately feel the need to raise this in the hope it gathers attention. It has come to a point where Barton Hall may as well not have the Tesla super chargers in their car park at this time of year. The amount of non-electric vehicles which are being allowed to park in the Tesla charger spaces is unbelievable. It’s causing chaos in their car park as multiple electric cars are unable to get on chargers and can’t go anywhere because the rest of the car park is full. It’s essentially no different to someone coming in and parking across the front of a petrol station. I can understand that some spaces may need to be used as overflow in peak times, but why not do what every other place does and monitor/limit this to 20 minutes maximum stay only in such spaces for non EV’s? Any electric car parked at 100% would start to be charged overstay fees for not moving out of the space. So why is it fair that stubborn people are getting away with parking petrol cars in these spaces with no comeuppance, just because they’re too lazy to park further out and walk? I’d imagine under their agreement with Tesla, they are bound to keep charging stations accessible for electric vehicles?

We were very disappointed with the service. We arrived and we greeted by a very nice young lady who took us to our table however we had a couple of issues with our food. When we raised our issues with the manager she dismissed them and refused to help at all. We asked for her name and she didn’t give it to us but her staff called us she was called Maggie.

Very disappointing visit. Asked to order drinks at the table as bar very busy with a wedding party. Then had to wait over 30 minutes for order to be taken. Service very poor and sloppy. Water spilt and left on the table. Roast potatoes missed off of all four plates. Liqueur coffee arrived spilt all down the glass and on the saucer. This was after waiting over 30 minutes again for two coffees and two whiskey’s. Won’t be in a hurry to return.

Went for Sunday Lunch to celebrate ours and my parents anniversary’s. On arrival there was a large wedding party taking photos just as you came through the door. ( This made getting to book in very difficult as even when politely asked to let us through they continued taking photos and blocking the entrance area. ( I understand that it is a wedding Venue but maybe a better idea to gather wedding parties away from the restaurant entrance) Once we were seated we waited an awful long time for our drinks , when they arrived the waitress proceeded to miss the water glass and pour all over the table! We had been asked that we sat and they brought drinks to us but would have been better to have purchased from the bar because we ended up having to chase our drinks. Service was slow and sloppy. Our mains arrived minus any of our party having roast potatoes. By the time we had managed to get somebody’s attention and ask for potatoes two of the party had nearly finished their meals. Onto Coffee which took over 30 minutes to arrive. My Tia Maria coffee arrived with 80% of the cream in the saucer and down the glass. I wasn’t even offered another napkin to mop the mess up! Good job I carry tissues! Considering what you pay for a Sunday Lunch the service and care was very mediocre.

Visited today with a friend for lunch. The food was delicious, especially the tiramisu, that was so good…will be back for more in future!

Good food, great to sit outside. Service was impeccable!

Quite pricy for mediocre food and an almost bland, forgettable atmosphere. Billed as one of the better quality and certainly pricier restaurants in the area it should offer standout service and food, unfortunately neither were on offer. We ordered the chicken and prosciutto balottene, smoked pork strips with a side of fries. For dessert the Pina Colada posset and triple ice cream. A nice selection but everything was just a bit off. The chicken was overcooked and a little dry requiring a heavy coating of jus to be enjoyable. The fries had an overused oil taste... either the oil needed refreshing or the fryer wasn't hot enough. And the posset was more mousse and the shortbread was inedible leaving a rancid aftertaste. (One of the diners is a professional baker and she was far from impressed by this!) The pork strips were nice but not great, the same with the ice cream. All of this was raised with the waiting staff who seemed somewhat disinterested. The decor of the restaurant is ultimately forgettable and almost feels like a cheap knock-off of a chain restaurant. There's a few nice touches, the white gloves used when delivering food to the table is great (not seen since Silver Service training many moons ago), but its offset by the cheaply laminated drinks menus. It obviously wants to be a high class restaurant but unfortunately it stumbles in its execution.

Visited Vines for a meal with my wife. Menu had a good selection, I ordered the suet pie and my wife ordered the lamb nosiettes. The pie was supposed to come with rosemary and thyme mash, which seemed to be missing the rosemary and thyme! The lamb was extremely fatty and came with some additional broccoli (which my wife does not like) and was missing the toasted pine kernels! Generally the service was quite poor and value for money was bad. This restaurant has been going downhill for some time now and the hotel is definitely missing a trick, I don’t think we will be visiting any time soon.

We attended a funeral for a very special lady and the wake was at the vines, I have never been here before and never will again. The food was lovely but wasn't enough for everyone to have a sandwich or a piece of cake and I felt so bad for the lovely family who had lost there mother. They ran out of tea and coffee and had to wait ages for them to fill up. Some of the staff were rude and unhelpful. As this was the first time it certainly was nit a good impression given the circumstances.

Whilst stopping over in the hotel we chose to eat here in the evening. This restaurant had a lovely menu. I had the Chicken Coq auvin, which was delicious! Pannacotta to finish. Ambience was both relaxed and friendly, attentive waiting staff made the experience a pleasure.

Have eaten here a few times over the years, always a good experience. Staff are attentive, and the food very nice. Recommend the steak and ale pudding - puff pastry crust was perfect.

A Christmas gift that did not meet our expectations. Lunch was served promptly by excellent waiting staff but the food was very disappointing. They do not serve smaller portions for small appetites and when the meal arrived the veg was undercooked and the beef cut too thickly and very tough.

Had Sunday lunch here, very good

Our visit was for a family wedding and everything was great. We had a lovely day.

We booked for a group of 5 at lunchtime on a Saturday. On arrival we had to find our way through a group of wedding guests who filled the bar area, so we had to go directly to our table rather than have a drink in the bar. Service was fine with lovely staff and the food was very good, but rather expensive - I had the braised beef with mash which I would recommend. We all had different dishes and agreed they were all good, especially the chips that came with the burger! Personally I felt that the afters were overpriced for what they were.

Excellent place for our anniversary meal. Was offered free cocktail! Nice touch. Staff were lovely, have been a few times and always had a lovely meal. Recommended. Again visited for my 70rh birthday, lovely .

Only called for a drink but very quiet n no atmosphere

Food was good. But to be charged for a pint orange juice and lemonade over £7 because they charged for a pint of lemonade (when obviously you don't get a pint because they have to add orange juice of which we were charged £2.60.) Also charged £2.60 for a dash of soda water. Which they put through as half lemonade. Didn't see the bill at the time as we were celebrating a birthday. Very disappointed will not be returning and will be warning friends of rip off drink prices 😡

Food really nice. But can't believe £7.20 for orange juice and lemonade. Charged for pint of lemonade (which obviously is not a full pint as they have to add orange juice which we were charged £2.65 And I was charged £2.90 for a dash of soda water. I will be contacting trading standards as not getting a full measure of a pint of lemonade. 😡😡. I didn't say anything at the time as we were celebrating a birthday and I didn't see the bill till I got home. Will not be returning and will advise people to throughly check bills. Rip off prices.😡

Stunning setting, lovely room, lovely food and fantastic grounds we also loved the Spa too. Oh and great value for money 👌

We attended a wedding here and it is a great venue.

Amazing food and gorgeous environment.

Attended a wedding reception and the food was delicious plentiful and plentiful. The venue was so lovely and with the good weather, a great combination.

I had a few beers here, the staff were very friendly cheerful and very helpful lovely and relaxing atmosphere, very nice decor, would recommend a visit.

We had a very pleasant lunch but with one small negative as part of main course of my lady friend but overall we had an enjoyable lunch with excellent table service.Unfortunately on the day the restaurant was very quiet so lacking atmosphere but we were assured this was very unusual.We are going back next week for an evening meal so we have not been put off.

Quite possibly the worst afternoon tea I’ve ever had! I knew it was going to be poor from the moment we walked in & we weren’t greeted in anyway & then they couldn’t find our booking. A polite young lady seated us & took our order for tea & coffee I had a decaf cafetière of coffee which the plunger had already been pushed down & obviously too early as all that came out was coffee grains when I poured it. This was then sent back, another was given, this time was ok but they had still pushed the top down which really is the choice of the diner to do. Another waitress then brought our afternoon teas & to my total disappointment all 4 were normal when one should have been gluten free (ordered at time of booking). They then went on to blame whoever took the phone order but that didn’t help my situation. The waitress said she would be back then said we could keep all four teas & would I like a glass of fizz to compensate (a nice gesture but I would’ve still preferred my afternoon tea) & they’d see what they could rustle up in the kitchen for me. I was so disappointed as I was so looking forward to a lovely tea & had starved myself especially for it. The waitress returned with apologies as she placed the most sad looking plate of food in front of me. I did say “that’s not an afternoon tea” to which she replied “I know sorry but you have got the extra one to take away too” What the one that I didn’t order & can’t eat!! It consisted of a GF roll cut into 4 bits with a sprinkle of cheese & pickle a bit of ham a bit of egg mayo & a bit of tuna Mayo.. Along with a very small chocolate coconut macaroon & a slice of chocolate torte. Not £25 worth of food in any way & not even nicely presented. She did say she might be able to find me a GF scone but that never materialised. My partner said his afternoon tea was no way worth £25 either. You expect for that something a bit more special in the sandwiches at least (they had the same fillings as mine) & also for the 2hrs that was spent there nobody bothered to speak to us again to ask if everything was ok or even offer us more tea & coffee. I’m guessing the staff were embarrassed or they can’t be bothered. We even had to go to the bar to settle the rest of the bill as the waitresses seemed to disappear. I was so upset as I wanted it to be such a special day for my Mother & Father in Law as it was a special treat for them for Mother’s Day treat & my father in law as he is quite poorly with terminal cancer. I would’ve complained more whilst I was there but didn’t want to ruin the day for them. We will not be returning or be recommending others to go there (I was going to book spa days there too with friends but just this experience has put me off from ever returning).

£6.10 for a pint. Up 2 quid in 2 years is my guess.

I went with 3 friends for lunch to celebrate my 70th birthday. One of my friends had notified the restaurant that it was for my birthday and asked them to add a birthday message to my dessert plate, this was forgotten. We waited an hour for our first course even though there were only 2 other tables occupied. We were there for 2 and a half hours for 2 courses by which time we were the only table there. Prices are high so expected the food to be special . The superfood salad and fish and chips were enjoyed. Two of us had the sea bass which would have been enjoyed as was tasty but far too salty . After another long wait we ordered desserts. After a while the waitress returned to say there was only 1 portion of strudel so I changed to sticky toffee pudding. After a while the chef came out to say he was just going to make some sticky toffee pudding but would be another 20 mins so I reordered the chocolate nemesis . When it arrived this would have been ok but was cold and solid as served straight from the fridge . The restaurant was actually quite cold which we mentioned to the waitress and 2 of us sat with our coats on so we all ordered teas and coffees with our desserts. The 2 cappuccinos were lukewarm so soon were cold. We mentioned some of these issues at the end and did receive a reduction on the final bill but this didn’t make up for what I had hoped would be a special meal. The building and grounds are lovely so could be a special place to eat with improvement

We ate at the restaurant as part of our stay at the hotel. The environment is lovely. A grand setting with a nice atmosphere. The bar had a good variety of drinks with a very friendly barman. The restaurant looks great. A nice, relaxed environment with a feeling that you’re somewhere which is going to be nice to eat at. We were seated and shortly afterwards someone appeared to take our order. Strangely we’d not been offered drinks. I had to ask for the wine list which appeared as a laminated sheet of A4 with a slim selection. Mostly sold by the glass. Seams like the kind of place which would have had a greater and higher quality selection. We were not offered drinks throughout the meal, always had to wave someone down. The menu is simple and contains a selection of what I’d describe as pub classics. A little more than you’d pay in a pub, however you expect that the food will be a higher standard as a result. Unfortunately, the food wasn’t up to the standard of the prices. Perfectly edible, but whilst each dish has some tasty parts, other bits let it down. On the seafood platter the calamari were quite chewy and for the main the pork belly had a cooking fat taste. Mixed experience. A lovely posh feeling restaurant with prices to suit, however the service, menu and food doesn’t feel in keeping with it. We’d visit again but I probably wouldn’t recommend for a special occasion to someone else.

Wonderful place, great staff and lovely setting to sit and relax with a drink or eat and let your eyes feast on the lovely interior decor or if in daylight the wonderful gardens and orangery

We enjoyed our 2 night hotel stay and all our meals were wonderful. Food was plentiful and the staff in the restaurant and bar area were attentive and charming, Waitress Winter always had a smile. Our room very clean and warm and had everything we needed. The Spa was a lovely experience, Lucy showed us round and explained what was available and it was very enjoyable. Loved the Hydropool then chilled and read a book, ideal!

We ate here last night to celebrate my wife's birthday. On arrival the carpark was pretty busy so we figured that was a good sign of popularity of the venue. Inside it was busy with not many tables empty but there was a corporate function in the room at the rear . To start we had the baked camembert sharing board as was excellent. To follow my wife had the beetroot burger and I had the lamb suet pudding with mash and again both piping hot and cooked to perfection. We had no room for desert so skipped that . The staff there appeared very young but were really pleasant, very well mannered and attentive and couldn't be faulted. One minor little gripe is the light in the dining room is very dark and we struggled to see the menus . All in all a very nice birthday celebration meal .

My girlfriend and I attended a Valentine's Day meal. The service and atmosphere was great, Barton Hall is such a lovely setting. Food was tasty. Shall definitely be back!

Beautiful place, friendly and efficient staff. Food was outstanding, presentation, quality and so delicious. Highly recommend, cant wait to return

Quality food, well presented and good portion size.

Lovely terrace at bar and restaurant

Visited the brassiere for a quick bite to eat and drink, sat in bar and found atmosphere relaxing and the food was excellent and staff very polite and helpful

Went for a family meal and had a wonderful experience ! We all had the Salmon Mousse as a starter - it was excellent and very filling, followed by Sirloin Steak, too much for even me to eat…. Followed up with both ice cream and trio of sorbets - all very well presented and prepared. The food was very hot and obviously freshly prepared - the quality of the ingredients was top notch too as the steak was very tender. The staff were very attentive, particularly Jude the waiter / maitre d, and based on this experience we would certainly be going back again. Thank you to the Vines for a lovely evening….

Had a family meal last night the food and service was fantastic. Had Salmon to start followed by Steak . Despite the fact they were very busy and also had a wedding on at the venue the service was first class along with the food. Many thanks to our servers last night especially Jude who was excellent. I will certainly be returning.

Slightly miffed about the £12 for a glass of wine … which … to be perfectly honest was no better than my local …extortionate prices

Family meal was booked for 10 people to celebrate a birthday and a graduation. We arrived promptly at 2.30pm and found we had to thread our way through a huge wedding party taking up all the bar and restaurant area. Only one lady was serving drinks for the throng of people, with no-one around to direct us, one of us had to fight our way into the restaurant to find a table for 10. Only two tables had other diners waiting. Eventually we got menu’s, followed by a prompt for drinks, which arrived 20 minutes later, with a bottle of sparkly water for two people delivered in one pint glass! Apparently bridesmaids at the wedding venue were changing in the room where the bottles were kept! Meal orders were then taken. Starters finally started to arrive an hour after we got there. My starter, a Feta & watermelon salad, was disgusting. Mellon consisted of thee small bits, the Pea shoots were yellow and dry and the lettuce was slimy. This was pointed out to the waitress who said she would tell the chef, butt nothing was said or done about it. In fairness, the main courses were nice, although the whole experience was incredibly long and slow. I emailed the manager, but got no response other than an automatic acknowledgement, and a further email has elicited only the same response some two weeks later. Obviously, on this occasion, the wedding may have put the staff under a strain…but that shouldn’t mean that the restaurant guests should be inconvenienced. Pricing at the Vines is high and standards should match them, and after reading other reviews, the poor service isn’t always down to weddings. We will definitely wait until reviews start going the other way before we try it again.

A retirement and leaving meal arranged for 19.45 for 16 people. Food arrived at 21.30 eventually. One of my colleagues had to leave at 21.15 staff brought her meal out in an ice cream plastic box?and then charged for it on the bill. Food was over priced and drinks prices extortionate. Two different prices for the same drinks order. I feel well and truly ripped off!!!

Good food, excellent cheery service and very relaxed atmosphere. We are now regulars for our monthly get together

We went for a birthday dinner and the food and service was excellent. We sat outside with beautiful views and enjoyed our meal and a drink. Morgan and Lilly were excellent and catered to our every needs.

Went to Vines for a family meal for 10, very disappointing evening. Thought the menu was very limited for the prices charged. Food took a long time to come and the standard was average, have had better meals at chain pub/restaurants. Steaks overcooked, served with trumpet mushrooms that were dried up. Tomato on side tasted like it was merely warmed up not actually cooked. Tandoori spiced lamb cutlets were dry, these were served with garlic mash(not very garlicky) and a pea puree which had dried up on the plate. Served with broccoli not the Savoy cabbage the menu promised, also only lukewarm. Battered cod was soft not crispy, clearly had been left under the heat lamps. Considering the prices charged expected a lot better experience. Would not recommend

One star because I have to. The service in this place is terrible, the staff do not know anything about customer service. Can’t serve you at the bar. Just avoid this place until it closes & reopens with decent leadership. What a shame because it’s in a perfect spot. What a shame 😏

I wanted to take my husband out for Afternoon Tea for his birthday. Barton Hall looked good on the website, how I wished I had read the reviews on here. I purchased in vouchers and paid over the phone, they were posted to me they...

Joined a friend for a lunch date and thought the building and decor was beautiful so anticipated the menu with excitement. I won’t be returning! The menu was no different to a burger joint. Everything was fast food. There was nothing that even sounded palatable....

Having pre booked a table for 3, I entered the brasserie through an open door, (no signage anywhere)was seen by waitress and ignored. Came out. Met one of my friends in the carpark, so we tried another door. Ignored for a while until the third...

Nice food kids burgers was with a granary seeded bun which I don't think is appropriate for kids . But they managed to exchange the buns to brioche even though they was very small at least they tried to rectify. Which is all anyone can ask.

What a surprise! I used to live locally but had never been and what a great shame to have missed out! Fabulous place and wonderful staff!

Very relaxed atmosphere, the staff was very welcoming and friendly and the food was lovely 😍

Afternoon Tea was lovely ❤️. The sandwiches had good sized sliced bread and filling. The cakes were beautifully decorated and very yummy. The Scones were a great size and we had two each! Service was lovely and attentive. Great time had by 6 of us and we look forward to coming back!

After seeing a number of reviews criticising the service here, I thought that I should say that my mother and myself were very impressed by the friendly and efficient service we received. I took a star away because we were disappointed by the choices available...

We just had a meal with 19 Family members to celebrate our Golden wedding the food and service was Excellent Many thanks to the staff

Delicious Sunday lunch. The beef was lovely and pink and the Yorkshire puddings were great. Lovely service

We visited for what was initially a couple of drinks and chose to sit at a low table with a comphy sofa, all fine so far so good. My partner and myself then decided we would eat , I went up to the bar after...

Great place but after perusing the menu disappointing to be told what’s not available . Drinks were lovely Food was at best ok Bones in the fish Not what we expected On the whole was a lack lustre dining experience - such a shame Will...

Great place to visit and very friendly staff

Compliments to the chef, brilliant 5 courses . Ambiance really relaxed, our waiter , a local lad , was a real star . Excellent definitely recommend to anyone 😌

Had a lovely 60th birthday meal here,delicious food and good service.

Poor menu choice and bar service slow, plus running out of rum

Great atmosphere, excellent food and service .So lovely to be able to enjoy a lovely meal in great surroundings again for our annual Christmas meal. Will definitely be back ext yeqr

Had a lot better for alot less elsewhere 😏

Very disappointing night out with two friends, we all ordered steak of which only one steak was edible as the other two were so tough one of my friends couldn't cut it. They did cook her another one which was slightly better but still not the standard you would expect for the price. My other friend asked to take hers home for the dogs! We weren't charged for the two meals but it wasn't the evening out we had been looking forward to after not seeing each other for a long time. Apparently The Vines don't do veg anymore!! That's what we were told when we asked for a side of veg, although after our comments, they did manage to find some peas - no sides on the new menu, never been to a restaurant that doesn't 'do veg'! We have been going to The Vines for a number of years, on this experience we're sorry to say we won't be going back anytime soon.

Lovely little hotel/bar/restaurant... Only used the bar side of the service enjoyed many lovely martinis

Awful customer service from restaurant manager, Kerry I think her name was... Service slow, food average at best and overpriced..

Feels like home. Not posh, just very well done. Tons of history, of course, but s modern British menu including a very good fish sharing platter (kipper paté, sweet chilli Chutney, prawns, calamari etc), and a nettle linguine (ikyn!) that I'm ordering again next time! Lovely puddings, cheese plate and they're in no hurry to turf you out. Coffee was excellent too.

This was our first family meal in months and honestly wish we didn’t bother. According to the chef this steak is rare. They refused to redo the steak or take off the bill. Later that day I emailed the General Manager and received an initial...

We visited with friends on a Friday evening. Service was indifferent, prices were ridiculously expensive for the small portions on offer - and the price of drinks was excessive- £9.50 for a glass of red wine!

We visited here for an evening meal and enjoyed the food very much. Great service from Andrea and the staff. We look forward to our next visit.

Lovely food, staff friendly and attentive. Nice surroundings.

Beautiful restaurant and great food staff very helpful

The building and grounds are nice but the food wasn't amazing the antipasti was nice but the teriyaki steak was far from good almost looked like n tasted like it came out of a tin. Staff were very busy and always polite and very well presented.

We had Saturday lunch for 15 of us and not one of us had had a bad word to say. The food was excellent and the service was prompt, friendly and no fuss. Really great. However when 3 of us had taken in our menu...

Always a good ambience and nice surroundings. Lovely food and great service. What's not to like?!

plenty of choice nothing to much trouble food is well above average breakfast dinner and lunch lots of choices

Very disappointing! This was our first visit to Vines, and probably our last. The chips were overcooked, condiments were provided in sachets, no vinegar for the chips. The burger bun wasn’t fresh, this was over cooked too. It seems the food has been in lockdown too! The staff weren’t over friendly, one passed by 6 times, avoiding eye contact as we tried to order a second drink. When we complained that the chips were overcooked, the server did deduct the extra portion from the bill, but he didn’t seem that surprised by our complaint. I had booked Vines for my husband’s birthday, but he said it was the worst meal he’s had in a long while. Such a shame as the setting is beautiful, but the food was below average.

Sat outside. Lovely food and cocktsils

A beautifully warm summer's evening. We sat outside on the terrace. The food was fine however the service was extremely slow (we sat down at 6.30 and our main course was served at 8.20- not sure of the time of our starters) The staff that were there seemed to be working really hard so I can only assume their issue was a shortage of staff.

This was our first meal at a proper restaurant after lockdown. Last time we went it was amazing - food was stunning. This time not so good. Service was average with 15 minutes before drink order and the same for the food order starter was...

The Beer battered fish and chips tasted lovely and fresh...enjoyed it very much. Lovely greenery view while outside dining even though there was a heavy downpour during dinner being served, it was still a nice dining experience 😋

There is no doubt that this is a fantastic place and we use it as our local. Staff good, food good & an excellent location with country side views. Please get outside heaters, it would be perfect in this weather!

Nice to finally be able to come out but in a way that remains socially distanced and safe. Was extremely lucky with the weather but they have a marquee out with no sides on, which would certainly help with any rain. Honestly the food was...

Lovely dinner and well managed with social distancing requirements. Thank you to the staff for the attention to the little rhings.

Excellent service ,great steak ,blue cheese sauce was a bit runny but made use of it on my chips,creme brulee was also a runny but overall good experience.

It's pricey but you certainly get your moneys worth. Food was excellent {try the hake if you can}, service prompt, friendly and efficient.

Gorgeous caeser salad. Only slight criticism would be too much dressing but it was delicious ! If you don't like too much I would just ask for it on the side 🙂

An enjoyable evening, perfectly cooked steak and excellent service.

Had lunch at the Vines yesterday sitting outside and couldn’t fault the food or service. They provided my daughter with a kids version of one of the adult meals much to her delight. Well worth a visit.

We had a lovely evening at the Vines, first visit To eat anywhere after ‘lockdown’ and although I was a little nervous, the staff have everything sorted with sanitizer stations are everywhere, minimum items on the tables etc. The booking system worked well for us. We can recommend it

Having been married at the Hotel where this brasserie resides, we are regular visitors and also have the 'lunch club card' that allows holders up to 25% off the bill (restrictions apply). Meal of 6 people was well served, not rushed, and allowed time for discussions. Was quieter than normal but that may be due to COVID-19. All meals use fresh, local, ingredients where possible. Again, there are deals to be had in the evening with various promotions on different days.

Lovely venue and attentive staff. Very good sandwiches!

Absolutely fantastic food as always! Good choice of starters, main courses and desserts with outstanding presentation. The staff were friendly and service was fast and efficient. The building is lovely and tastefully decorated. Would recommend wholeheartedly.

Thought this was excellent and we see this as the best place to go locally if you want something a bit special. The steaks were excellent and cooked as requested. My wife enjoyed the pheasant and another member of our group had the pork belly. A good meal in relaxing surroundings accompanied by nice wine..the Merlot was really very good! Finally the service was friendly and attentive. Would we return? We most definitely would!

Nice settings for a summer's day . We sat outside with a cocktail. The Aperol's could have been better.

I’ve been here many many times since it opened but the last few visits have made me think twice about going again. It’s only a 10 minute walk from my home, and I have a lunch time discount card but the poor quality of the food on my last few visits, together with the relatively poor service mean I shall be going elsewhere in future.

Very pleasant nice coffee and a read of the daily paper. Food looked good.

Visited For valentine's day, booked and paid for in advance with a set menu. Food was excellent, no complaints at all. Service was really good, staff very friendly and accommodating. Food was served at a good pace, didn't feel rushed but not too much waiting around. Beautiful building, really lovely as a special occasion and would certainly visit again.

Lovely 3 course Sunday lunch for friends birthday
