Ristoranti a Birchington

Took some visiting friends here for a roast, in my option the best locally. It was as delicious as ever and the portions were very generous. All of the staff were, as always, exceptional. The price per person for two courses and drinks was less than £40. You really will not go wrong by booking here! The only downside was two small constantly yapping dogs but this was not the fault of the restaurant however, it was an annoyance for the entire table. The owners gave an occasional shush but honestly, next time leave them at home and be considerate to other diners.

Fantastic restaurant - gorgeous setting, inventive takes on classic dishes, great wine and fabulous service!

What a great afternoon of food to celebrate an anniversary. A wonderful gesture was a card wishing us a happy anniversary signed by all the staff waiting for us at our table. This kind of attention to detail is always so welcomely received. We weren’t drinking alcohol today so had bottles of sparking water. We were served an amouse-bouche of a crispy cracker topped with a truffle cream and a peanut. Starters We had confit skate with a crab bisque sauce and chicken liver parfait with a croissant. Mains Doddington lamb with Jerusalem artichoke purée and an anchovy dressing. Monkfish with poached leeks and mussel escabeche. Both beautifully presented and tasted glorious. Dessert I nearly always have the cheese option for dessert and this was the best I’ve ever had. The combination of Cote Hill Blue cheese, Parkin and a Damson jelly was taste perfection. The other dessert of salted caramel slice with Yorkshire rhubarb and a coffee cream was equally delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful making the entire experience memorable and comforting. Thank you for making our special day deliciously memorable.

Excellent!! Everything was delicious and the service was perfect.

Some technical difficulties adding to the pressures on this New Years Day service but were dealt with graciously by the very accomodating manager and his team. Nice spot to hide from the stormy weather outside!
