Booked the restaurant for a valentines meal, but apparently I accidentally booked for drinks in error. I asked if we could be relocated to the restaurant for a meal and the staff done this without hesitation (thankfully the restaurant was quiet enough so they had space at the time. We went for the £70 chateaubriand valentines deal, medium rare and it was excellent. It was a lovely cut of beef and came with a glass of sparkling rosé, four sides (Mac & Cheese, parmesan fries, sautéd greens and mushrooms), as well as three amazing sauces (chimichurri, peppercorn and béarnaise sauce). Great value, tasty food, a romantic setting for a fancy dinner in beautiful Stockbridge. No complaints whatsoever and I'd happily come back!

April 2025 - Gave it the benefit of the doubt when it opened but it’s been enough time….weird vibe and staff just don’t seem to know what they’re doing, ever. Haphazard is probably the most apt word. Nobody seemed to know if it was table service or not. No water. No food menus after asking twice. Better off going somewhere else local eh. Only exception would be if you’re in the beer garden at the front which is definitely not table service and you know where you’re at with it. August 2025 - came for drinks outside and all fine and nice, so can’t comment on the food or the inside service!
