One MICHELIN Star : High quality cooking, worth a stop!
Using top quality ingredients, dishes with distinct flavours are carefully prepared to a consistently high standard.
The eponymous chef’s dream has always been to open his own restaurant, and this warm, relaxing space above his father’s jewellery shop represents its realisation. The locals obviously know a good thing when they see it, since bookings are hard to come by; those who do manage to secure a table choose between a set 5 or 7 course tasting menu of modern British dishes. Like the chef himself, the cooking is confident yet restrained. Tom’s experience shines through in the detailed yet unfussy dishes, which are beautifully presented and come with well-thought-through flavour combinations. There’s a great value midweek lunch menu, as well as wine flights and plenty of good quality wines by the glass. Perfectly pitched service from a cheerful young team completes this enjoyable dining experience.
