"The Lord Roberts has long been a favourite place of ours for brunch, tea or just a cake coffee after a walk around the Web Estate but they started to do evening meals recently so we gave it a try. The new owners (from mid 2023 I think) bring a Lebanese twist to the Lord Roberts and so it's not surprising that dinner is Lebanese only cuisine. The menu is quite limited, which we really like, but it's all home cooked and caters for veggies and meat eaters alike. Our visit was a Friday night and we were the only patrons (only been doing dinner for a few weeks so the word is out there much) but it didn't matter because the nature of the place is that it feels cosy and vert welcoming. The owners couldn't have been more welcoming and although they are just finding their feet they laid on a lovely meal and spent time with us explaining the origin of the dishes etc. I'm trying to remember what we had (the menu isn't online yet) Tabbouleh (salad with bulgur), Baba Ghanouj (aubergine dip), Humus, Lamb Kibbeh, Lamb Kafta, Batata Harra and I'm sure there were a couple of other pastry things that wrapped lamb or cheese. All of it was great, portions were generous and the quality of the ingredients super fresh. The only thing to note: there is wine, beer and cider available but it's all non alcoholic and although we had a crack at most, it was all a little sweet. I don't know if they would allow BYO with/without corkage but I would suggest asking when you book."
