Nice enough little ground for non-league football, but it's quite poor standard for League football tbh

Visited for a solo lunch before walking up Hoad Hill. It wasn't quite what I was expecting, I'd thought it was going to be sandwiches, soups, salads etc but I guess that'll teach me to read the reviews better another time. In fact a group of three older people came in, sat down, looked at the menu and left again! That said, I ordered the cajun vegetable skewers (vegetarian/vegan) which suited me fine, were pretty tasty and cost £9.95. It was quiet but the staff were welcoming and helpful. Other items on the menu included smoked haddock, maple glazed belly pork, posh croque monsieur and butter bean cassoulet

Four of us there last night 6th Jan for a meal, can only say really lovely food and great value. Very friendly and informative staff, great to talk with the owner/head chef at the back of the evening.
Compares favourably with any local restaurants including Michelin starred restaurants.
Small number of covers and a weekly tasting menu that is changed each week
All four of us will be going back and recommend if you haven’t been then give yourself a treat

Small market but with one or two great stalls. Especially the discount book shop. A great selection of mainly non fiction paperbacks.

This establishment hits all the marks for me, excellent quality of food with contemporary yet elegant plating and attentive staff with an atmosphere so perfect for a fine dining meal with a more casual feel.
This years December menu left me completely astounded right from the first course (Citrus cured sea trout) which had a texture from fish I have never experienced, followed by the Parsnip veloute served with a whipped goat's cheese that can only be described as magical. For a main I chose the Cod loin which was cooked to perfection and the chowder that it sat upon was rich and full of flavour from the clams. I finished with Mark's very unique take on "Christmas pudding" with silky pannacotta sat on a thin layer of Christmas pudding, garnished with soaked, sweet, plump golden raisins and a beautifully spiced tuile.The dessert this night has stayed in my mind since and will do for some time, I am sure. I would highly recommend this venue to any self confessed "foodie" with confidence that you would return to me with a glowing review.
