We went for the first today 5 Jan 2025, recommend by a friend who lives in Ripley. She advised us to book and she was right! It’s a while since we’ve had a full-on Sunday lunch so it was a bit of a treat. One person had the roast beef, another the lamb, and I had salmon. All good with portions of Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, roast vegetables, brussel sprout mash, and sensational cauliflower cheese, plus gravy. A tasty zero beer called ‘Little Swine’ from Hogs Back Brewery which deserves wider distribution. Followed by bread and butter pudding and chocolate fondant both with ice cream. And coffees and tea. We added a generous tip for the attentive and friendly service. All up £50 a head which is good value. Didn’t have time to shop but a glance round says they’ve got delicious deli.

Really enjoyed our lunch today with amazing flavours, textures and seasonality on our plate. Pleasant service. Take away goods from the salad bar also very tasty ( quiche & scotch eggs) Look forward visiting during a dinner service too. 👌🏼

Overall: Would go again! This is a super cute place to have drinks with some delicious bursts of flavour tapas style. You don't come here to pig out. This is flavour eating.

Went for breakfast for my husband’s birthday. Lovely place, friendly service and excellent food. We had a scrambled egg and bacon and a full English - both delicious and as good as we’ve had anywhere. All the ingredients were of the best quality and well cooked. Delicious coffee. The decor is tasteful and for a Tuesday morning it had a nice buzz about the place. We will be back!
