They have a main restaurant and also a little bistro in a separate onsite building, called The Potting Shed. We ate in the bistro. Food was incredibly good. Parsnip fritters for a starter were the best food we had during our time in Britain! The unusual take on Sticky Toffee Pudding, with layers of brown sugar, was an improvement on the classic. Short walk to the river. What would be better than a stop here? A stay here! Pricey, but warranted. Look for low rates and deals off season.

The outdoor grounds provide a peaceful place to walk -- and the flowing river is just 100 yard down a short hill. The real star is the Bistro restaurant next door which turned out to be our best meal during our two week tour of the UK. Only reason we wound up there is because they were full at the main hotel "fancy" restaurant - the the desk manager steered us to The Potting Shed. Chef was Polish and is certainly going places -- as for VERY reasonable prices we got amazing, beautiful dishes like Beet Root, Parsnip Fritters, Chicken wrapped in Parma Ham, Fish and Chips, Lamb, and the most wonderful Bread and Butter Pudding for desert. Atmosphere was rustic and charming -- sit on the small covered patio for that view. Would HIGHLY recommend if you are anywhere near this area -- it's worth a special trip just to see the Peacocks parading on the lawn.

She was friendly, kind, and professional. She also had her four-legged friend named Jager helping in the pub today. The pub is pet-friendly, and there were many pets visiting with their owners. As it happened, Jager took a liking to me, which made the experience even more enjoyable. For lunch, we had the steak pie, tender pieces of beef in a rich gravy, baked in flaky pastry and served with mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables. It was the perfect dish for a rainy afternoon. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The combination of great food and a warm atmosphere made this a most enjoyable experience, one I hope to repeat again soon

The Auld Reekie (mushrooms and smoked cheddar on toast) was outstanding, being rich and perfectly done. The carrot soup was very flavorful (it needed a pinch of salt, but that's ok.) The chicken sandwich on a ciabatta roll was better than expected--the roll was so delicious and the flavorful filling just worked together with it really well. The chips were thin and crispy and hard to not just keep having one more. The waitstaff were outstanding (nice, helpful and professional), and the food came quickly. It's worth a special trip here for this comfortable restaurant with delicious food.

We stopped in to have some lunch from their pub menu. What an amazing surprise. The staff were charming and friendly. The service was fast and conscientious. The food was delicious and the tap beer added to a perfect lunch. With daily specials and a solid regular menu, it would be hard not to find something you'd like. Food was served hot and fresh. Beer was served cold from the tap. What a great stop for a tourist exploring the area. Stop in before the rest of those crazy Yank tourists find this hidden gem. LOL! We'll be back again on our next trip.
