Decided to treat ourselves here for our anniversary and Cheals definitely didnt disappoint! From the pleasant decor and attentive service to the incredible food. We were excited when we found out they catered for a halal menu (which you have to enquire about 48hrs in advance). We got served lamb rack for our mains, which was cooked to perfection. We both thoroughly enjoyed the sourdough bread and rosemary buns with butter which were melt in your mouth, divine🤩 Hats off to the chef! We finished off with some lovely desserts and a little chocolatey surprise 🥰 Definitely would like to try the tasting menu next time!

Previously visited Cheals when based in Henley-in-Arden. This was our first time at their new location in Knowle and we had a wonderful time. The restaurant is much more spacious now and the interior tastefully decorated. So, first impressions were great. Our waiter gave a warm welcome and expertly guided us through the menu and wine list. A very capable front of house team. My wife and I opted for the a la carte lunch menu and with each course our enthusiasm for the next grew. The hardest thing is deciding between all the tempting choices on offer, so if your budget stretches to it, I'd go for the tasting menu for a real treat. The highlight for us both was the dessert course. What a selection of moreish puddings skillfully prepared. Hats off to their patisserie chef. We chose Cheals for our second wedding anniversary and were delighted we did. We'll definitely be returning soon and would highly recommend it to others too.

Really enjoyed the dining experience here. Went for the winter set menu. Delicious . Each course was brought out with a brief description from server, presented beautifully and prepared skillfully. I enjoyed the quail starter, followed by pork main, and the indulgent chocolate mousse topped with sorbet. Look forward to a return visit

Grace & Savour

“Where do you on gloomy day in England? Lunch Grace & Savour in the grounds of Hampton Manor . Which is beautiful any time of the year. But who cares about the weather when you are sat at one of the prime spots in a restaurant like this. This is not just any chefs table. It's huge,you can't miss it,as you walk-in. Saturdays is their only lunchtime service and the most affordable time to visit if you're on a budget. Where they serve a reduced menu at £90pp. It's a strict 12.00pm reservation,which most diners stuck to. Each course is prepared and served to the whole restaurant at the same time. This helps the flow of service. You don't get to see the menu until the end. If you really want to know,they will give you a copy,so you know what to expect. Being seated in prime position we could watch the chefs busy preparing each course and trying to guess what was next. As each dish is presented to you the ingredients are explained,before you tuck in to the delights. The restaurant is headed up by the very talented chef David Taylor and his lovely wife who overseas the smooth running of service. From the moment you walk into the gardens and through the door,you are warmly greeted just like old friends. Even though this was our first visit. The food and hospitality are second to none. Beautiful restaurant,exsquisite food,first class service in a stunning location. A foodie destination to rival any others.”

“We came to lavang to celebrate our mom's birthday on 9-3-2025 From walking in the the staff were so welcoming and the decor was beautiful. The starters came and were presented so beautifully with the dry ice mist over the table, which set the mood for the main course, and the main course wasn't disappointing at all as it was perfect. Everything was spot on. Thank you for a great evening 😊”

Tradita

“I love tradita. 5 minutes from my house, authentic Mediterranean recipes and the vibe is relaxing comfortable and homely. The food is always bursting with flavour, plenty of choice for everyone and always served piping hot and fresh. The tzatziki is bursting with authentic Greek flavours and takes you to the streets of Santorini. The meat is always tender and marinated to perfection and it’s a hidden gem to have such a wide range of food at your doorstep. No where else around the area offers this type of food to such a high standard. I visited today for my birthday and was welcomed warmly and accommodated for 2 hours with delicious food and great drinks for a reasonable price. The only thing that disappointed me was I ordered a seafood spaghetti. On the menu it stated it contained mussels prawns and clams. I received the dish and was enjoying it when I noticed mini octopus’s and calamari rings in the dish. The taste and flavour was great but an octopus is one of my favourite animals and I would never wish to eat one intentionally so when I noticed them in my dish I was immediately put off. The prawns and muscles and pasta was incredible I just wish it was started in the menu it contained octopus as although the dish was extremely enjoyable, I couldn’t carry on eating incase a stray tentacle was consumed. Despite this I would still return and would encourage others to visit, just ask and be aware of what’s in a dish before you order. Thank you for a wonderful birthday great atmosphere, great quality for price, outstanding food and flavours and always great service 👌🏼”

“OMG - La Nonna is absolutely amazing. We never knew it was there, yet we love Italian food. The service is 100% spot on, as is the atmosphere - where you are not rushed and can actually enjoy your meal at your own pace. The food is amazing, the flavours are outstanding with portion sizes extremely generous. The great thing is my wife and I visited on a date night and we were blown away at everything and kept talking about it , telling others about it. Then we decided to go but this time take both our parents as well (our way of saying thank you for everything) ... Everything and I mean everything down to the last detail was the same as our first visit ... No drop in any areas, especially not the food or portion size. This impressed my wife and I, knowing it was not a fluke on our previous first visit. Our parents (who each are all picky) were amazed and loved the place, atmosphere, food, flavour and portion size. One even said they were expecting this fine dining stuff where you pay a lot and get nothing. The mother-in-law, couldn't even eat all her main and they packed it all up for her to take with her. This place, as long as they don't change is just great and amazing .... The service is next to none and can't be faulted, neither can the atmosphere. You really do get what you pay for, but with the (as it should be) added extra of the portion sizes. To find a negative ... I am being very very picky. The Champaign options are limited and expensive. 1000% recommend to anyone looking for a great date night meal location, or just for anyone to go out and to eat, drink, enjoy everything (service & atmosphere) and be able to talk. Excellent, please La Nonna do not make any changes.”

I have even mentioned how the food was. Starters were amazing mains were just as good. Overall think it was a dream visit we had Amazing night out. Thank you to the staff.”
