Beautiful birthday lunch at the Waterman’s Arms. We’ve been meaning to try it since it reopened last Autumn, I wish we hadn’t left it so long! We started with a few of the smaller dishes - lemon sole, mackerel and aubergine. Followed by the pork collar as a main to share with chips and flat beans. The mackerel and sole were stand out and the chips, not sure what you put on them to get them so crispy but they were amazing! We then had the baked custard with cherries, wow, looks deceivingly simple but tastes unreal. A really well considered menu, £150 for 2 with 3 courses, drinks and wine.

Booked in for a Sunday roast. Wine selection is lovely. The roast is a different spin on the classic we had the lamb for 2 which was so soft and delicious with a lovely sauce and plenty of meat. You then order sides, we had roasties, carrots and chicory all really tasty and some of the crispiest potatoes. Chocolate mousse for dessert was lovely too. Only criticism is the tables are very close together and can be very loud at peak times. Service is okay could be a little more attentive as we had to ask to order a couple of times.

Overall, a really lovely lunch. The food is executed extremely well. Some of the best roast potatoes I’ve ever had. My only qualm is the portion size. For £50, I would expect more than 1/2 a chicken for a sharing dish for 2 people (no sides included). I would absolutely return for the really delicious food and lovely service, but the portions felt just a bit lacking.

Lovley Sunday lunch with beautifully prepared Lamb served on the bone for you to carve at the table. Accompaniments were served as options you could choose. each one flavoursome and nicely prepared and presented. The roasties were crisp and fluffy on the inside, just right. Deserts were all homemade and tasty finishing the meal off perfectly. Lots of choice on wines, both red and white. My only slight criticism would be that the tables are packed close together, creating a slightly restricted seating arrangement, especially when people stand over you whilst you're eating. The waiting staff could have been more attentive, engaging, and approachable. All in all a lovely foodie experience you won't regret. My commendation to the kitchen staff for creating a modern take on a classic Sunday roast.
