The Old Vicarage Dinner
We shared a bread and dip selection which was amazing, followed by pork belly and the steak. Both mains were delicious, came with vegetable sides which were also lovely. We were just slightly let down by the dessert choices as none of them were choices we would make.

Consistently Delicious and Welcoming
We had a great experience dining here last night. The customer service was excellent, friendly, attentive, and welcoming from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish full of flavour and beautifully presented. This was our second visit, and it definitely won’t be our last. It’s now firmly on our favourites list 😍
