Eat here on a Wednesday evening just 2 of us. Sat in the conservatory area, the atmosphere was cosy and welcoming. Our server was Louise who was friendly and extremely helpful. Food was hot, tasty and good choice to choose from.

Brilliant Birthday meal. Thank you The only negative is with the duck leg, the presentation looks really nice but the pancakes split when they are then rolled

Another excellent offering from Brunning & Price. Very popular (we went on a Tuesday outside school hols and it was full). Service of both food and drinks was very friendly, quick and professional. Food was tasty and fresh - a good, solid menu. Some dishes are quite expensive, but the meal tickets for future visits (6 tickets deducts £12) are a nice incentive. I had the sea bass which came with 2 perfectly cooked fillets.
