"I came for the Game Evening with a friend for my birthday last night. The food was delicious all 4 courses. The choices of meat were brilliant as was the quality since it was sourced from a local butchers. The variety of sauces/ jus and veg bowls added to the taste and balance of each dish. Brilliant gamey style red wine/ fruity jus. I'm surprised they had 2 duck dishes instead of one being venison? I had to send my partridge back as it was too rare for me. But that was quickly rectified with a replacement meal not microwaved so that's a huge bonus! Also, the Argentinian Malbec (18) was perfect and wasn't acidic either. Atmosphere gets a 3 because the restaurant was just under half full so it was reasonably quiet. Service a four food came quickly, but between course 1/2, a bit too quickly. Also, one of the waitresses spilled some wine on the table cover but was very apologetic. Music, room and decor are very dated. All the waitresses and the manageress were really friendly and hospitable. A brilliant experience with great British food.
