"As far as the family tree is concerned, this is probably a hard-working, slightly lumpen Daniel to the Anchor & Hope's more happening Natasha Bedingfield." READ REVIEW

'In general the food was excellent and well-priced. It was let down, however, by service that was disorganised and a little full of itself' READ REVIEW

"Lordy, the pie was dense and rich and complex with a soggy-crunchy suet cover that knocks the Sistine chapel off top slot for divinely inspired roof-making. " READ REVIEW

"He knows his stuff. So I'm going to give it the benefit of the doubt. I certainly think it unlikely they will be employing someone to throw unsuspecting pedestrians into the dining room any day soon." READ REVIEW

"My friend's roast rump, served with potato salad and watercress, tasted as good as it was aesthetically pleasing (there is no colour across the entire food spectrum half as alluring as the deep ruby red of rare beef). Chips were fat, brown and perfect. Puddings, especially a rampant strawberry tart, were excellent, too." READ REVIEW

"I'd rather you expected nothing more than well-sourced, seasonal produce from small-scale producers, an intelligent cook, likeable staff who keep up the pace and a bill that couldn't be fairer if it tried." READ REVIEW
