Harden's survey result
Summary
“Small but perfectly run family restaurant” with inexpensive rooms overlooking the harbour, offering an “interesting fixed-price three-course menu” with “only a few choices, but they change every day and are always interesting and taste great”. It’s a “cosy, friendly” place, and is very popular – so “definitely book ahead”.
Summary
Set in a smart, glass-fronted shop conversion, “a small, family-run restaurant” with a handful of rooms, whose “ever-changing” three-course set menu (£45) is “consistently big” in the flavour stakes and also “offers good value”. It’s an “intimate” and “gratifyingly sociable” sort of spot, but owing to its diminutive size and local popularity do “make sure you book”.
For 34 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
