Review:
The place is housed in a 16th (?) century building with approx 30 covers so booking is advisable. They operate on a fixed price basis.
Lunch is £22 for 2 courses and £26 for 3 courses. Dinner is £31 for 2 courses and £36 for 3 courses.
The day I went, we had souffle and cappicio. Both well executed. Main courses were Hake on mash potato and chicken in a ragu. Vegetables were served on the side. Portions were on the generous side but was not huge. Most guides claimed that this is a French restaurant but its more like Modern European a la Browns in Worcester. I would definitely return.
