   Went for the tasting menu evening, it was absolutely amazing, all the dishes were cooked perfectly. They have a good selection of wine on the menu and all the staff were very pleasant.

   Completely miss sold on the menu, grilled vegetables were more like tinned and the table water had more flavour than the rest of the food, any ingredient with flavour in it was missing. Even food with natural flavour had somehow been sucked out. Portion sizes tiny, free bread on arrival was the best thing we ate. Ridiculously overpriced for 4 mouthfuls of a well below average meal, wouldn’t eat it again for free. Only leaving a 1 star review because 0 isn’t an option, sending salt and pepper out 1st class stamp first thing in the morning

   Undeniably high quality food, and I'd say it's good value too. The duck starter was delicious, as was the pork main ( the crushed baked potato was amazing.) The scallop starter was ok,but I mostly had that to try something new. The steak was a bit of a let down , overdone in places and underdone in others and just not what we were expecting. Dessert was good, though the date and hazelnut pudding could have done with more sauce. If you order a coke, it will come in a 200ml bottle which is slightly annoying. Overall though, a fantastic meal and would definitely go back. If youre in the area it's absolutely worth a visit.

   Spent a wonderful valentines evening at the Old post and me and my husband were very impressed. The interior is lovely with a warm and cosy atmosphere. The staff were friendly and very helpful, very attentive but not intrusive. We had a really nice chat with our waitress who gave us lots of information and got us booked in for one of their tasting menu events which I'm really looking forward to. The food was beautiful! High quality and generous portion sizes. We got canapés, starters, sorbet, main, dessert and a lovely box of homemade baileys chocolates to take home. All absolutely delicious! Can't wait to visit again. Perfect for a special occasion or romantic date night.

   I've been wanting to visit this restaurant for years but always cried off so since it is now open again my partner and I visited last night. Why have I waited so long is now my cry. It's a fantastic setting for dinner but that belies the quality of the food. We both started with the scallop and chorizo with pea puree, a simple starter but easily spoiled. The scallops were cooked perfectly and it was nice they were served with the roe, the chorizo crisp and with a paprika flavour that goes so well with scallops. The pea puree was as smooth as you could want. Round 1, clean plates! For main course I chose the fillet beef and madam chose the smoked cod loin. My beef was cooked to perfection and she said the cod was the same but with a not overpowering smoking. The little eye-opener on mine was the mushroom pastie that was served with it. My fillet melted in the mouth and both mains were neither too large or too small. Round 2, clean plates. I had a desert but madam chose to just have coffee. I chose the date and hazelnut pudding with a black treacle sauce and ice cream. The pudding was light and full of flavour, the sauce heavy with black treacle went perfectly and the ice cream rounded dessert so well that I only took an after photo. With 2 coffees and a nice bottle of 2016 Rioja and a bill of just over £110 for both of us we will be visiting again, very soon! P.S madam always gets effusive over napkins and I'm pleased to report proper linen used here.

   Fantastic food and great front of house, resulted in a wonderful meal. We had 3 courses, with each being flawless - high quality ingredients, cooked and presented well! Highly recommend a visit, and will certainly be back soon. Save room for desert, the Crème brûlée was delicious.
