I ve been a couple of times and both times had a good meal and enjoyed my evening,- but I was with friends and I always think its the company that makes an evening I enjoyed the meal it wasnt the cheapest of places but the food seemed good quality, however it must be over a year since I last went so not sure if my views are current or not. From my past experience I would look forward to going again

Thanks FC. The menu looks a bit over the top , are they flexible and would leave out some of the more "exotic" sauces etc.?

I cant guarentee that Meryl because I love exotic sauces so it hasnt occurred, but I m sure most restaurants will be flexible  why not give them a ring before you go It is proably more 'sophisticated' food than some places If your wanting  hearty English food it may not be the right place

I would go with an open mind and enjoy it but remember the restaurat is there to please you and by that token will be pleased to offer alternatives I have just remembered at our party  oe member had a difficult tummy and made some changes to her choice so dont worry

It was started by a lady called Marie and her partner as I recall. I lived opposite her for a while, she was a singer. Don't know if they sold it on or not?

It is owned by Mike Power  -  as is the Blue Boar at Oulton.
