A great fine dining experience in a nice location, we enjoyed the set menu, food and service were excellent. Felt very safe dining here after COVID. It was nice that the owner/chef took time to speak to each table dining.

We called in at Ford Park to walk up to the Barrow Monument (worth a visit - amazing views) and came across Base. We wrongly expected the type of fare you might typically find in a park cafe.
The food is excellent with the small plates and sides a great and affordable way to feed the family with something for everyone. All presented with care and absolutely delicious. We enjoyed it so much we had to make a return visit while in the area. Hard to choose a favourite but the halloumi fries and superb garlic mayo would be hard to beat. Good selection of drinks and desserts to round things off.
Really friendly and helpful service from our waitress who made us feel incredibly welcome and for whom nothing was too much trouble. If you're in the area, a visit to Base should definitely be on your list.

Fantastic food and the tasting menu was definitely worth while. The courses are well timed, fantastic flavour and ample given the menu format itself. We thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere, the theatrics of seeing the food prepared and also the food itself.
Parking to get to the restaurant is a challenge so worth either planning where you park ahead of time or alternatively getting a taxi if you're comfortable with that.
The restaurant is sign posted as the cafe if that helps as you go up the hill.
For us, having travelled whilst on holiday, the food was not only incredible but also a really special experience. Thank you to the team for making it special!

We inadvertently stumbled across this location whilst out for a country walk, thinking this would be a coffee and cake style café, how wrong could we have been! We were given a menu by a lovely woman immacutaly made up with her hot pink nails and were in awe and wonder with the selection on offer... A great array of both Gluten Free and Vegetarian options we shared a sublime meal in a beautiful setting. Genuinely some of the most excuisitely prepared food, so well flavoured that no additional seasoning is required. We delighted in satay cauliflower, roasted rosemary and brocilli, baked goats cheese on a beautiful bed of salad and hassle back potatoes... This is not your standard style eatery, genuinely some of the best food we have eaten in years.

I intended to visit this exciting new restaurant in my hometown before we went into the 3rd lockdown but sadly didn’t get chance. First visited a couple of weeks ago for lunch with my mum. We had a selection of small plates, which were absolutely delicious and really generous portions. I returned last night for the evening menu with my husband and good friends. Well what can I say..! Absolutely fabulous food and experience. Mark really knows how to put flavours together and watching him at work in the kitchen preparing our food was superb. With regular menu changes and the option to adapt for particular dietary requirements it’s an experience not to missed. We will be returning again soon. Staff were also lovely and friendly and very attentive explaining what each dish was. We are so lucky to have this quality of restaurant and food all locally sourced in our home town.

Had a delicious 7 course set meal here on Saturday night. The food was out of this world and everything was so tasty. The staff were really friendly and efficient. The head chef came to chat to each table at the end which was a nice touch. You can watch all the food being prepared too which is good. Definitely 10/10. Would highly recommend and we can’t wait to return very soon.
