This is a relatively new restaurant offering what I would describe as modern British fine dining. There is a Sunday lunch menu, ten course tasting menu or four course menu. - See the website for menu details. The kitchen is open at the back of the restaurant so you can see the food being prepared. We chose th four course menu. The food was well presented and was prepared to a very high standard, as was the service. You can opt for different glasses of wine with each course on all of the menus, but there is also a wine list available. Highly recommend.
