"Wow, what a huge disappointment. Focaccia stale. Megrim sole had apparently drowned in butter. But the worst was the expensive fruit de mare which I sent back as the first tiger prawn had decomposed into goup. I had sucked the head so am dreading the next 24 hours in anticipation of food poisoning. If nothing else, a fish restaurant should only serve prime fresh seafood. This was far from fresh! Apparently they have had difficulty recruiting a head chef. But the rot goes much deeper than that. I was still asked to pay £43 for the bread, megrim sole and two glasses of wine which I reluctantly did before making a quick exit. Shocking really."

Our reviews are based on an annual survey of ordinary diners which runs in Spring each year. But this establishment has not yet gathered enough feedback for our editors to write it up.

Do you think it deserves to be better known?

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
