My sister-in-law recommended this bistro for my birthday yesterday, as it had won some awards and came highly praised. We were not disappointed either. The website (do google walled garden bistro) gives a good flavour of what's in store for you (plenty of pictures to peruse).
The welcome and service is professional and friendly, the waiting area comfy (nice settees and chairs) and the food? Oh the food! One word. Superb. Served perfectly, and tasty without being overfacing. I can recommend the pigeon breast, lamb shoulder, and crumble, washed down with a chilled Rioja Rose. Marvellous.
Of course, with quality comes a price to match, but you get what you pay for (as with anything). One small gripe. The one real ale beer on offer (I was pleasantly surprised to see the handpull amongst the nitrokeg funny-foam taps) Hobgoblin was a little sharp on the taste buds. For you real-ale afficianados, this is not Cask Marque territory. Instead it is a damn fine restaurant, ideal for special occasions and haute cuisine.
Do try it. Found next door to the Barton Grange Hotel directly off the main A6 road. read more
