Food for me is a 3, but definite bump up to 3.5 for the excellent service and the nice ambiance.
Been here now once for brunch and once for dinner (Winterlicious).
For the Winterlicious dinner:
App - tried the fennel and endive salad, and the chicken liver pate. The salad was a mix of bitterness and blue cheese flavour. I wouldn't order this again. I also wasn't a fan of the pate. There was what seemed to be a layer of fat on top of the pate.
Main - I had the duck and waffle. The duck was cooked well. The waffle was quite soft, I might have liked it to have a bit more shape/crunch on the outside. My fav part of this dish was the chutney. I also tried the beef cheek with the polenta parsnip purée. It was good, but lacked in veggies. The portion size of the mains were quite large.
Dessert - the bread pudding is made with croissants! Mmm...Can't go wrong with a dessert made out of croissants. It was yummy. The 'famous' profiteroles were ok. Didn't stand out to me.
All in all, enjoyed the ambiance and service, but found the food to be quite average.
