It was pretty much empty other than another couple of diners and we had the run of the place; however, two courses still took us a good while to get served.
The atmosphere was very strange as it's a hotel restaurant.
It's difficult to find in the first place, and the toilets are located through the bar, down some stairs, past the gym and then through a bit more of the rabbit warren.
Also, a party of four arrived and were placed on the table right next to us in the virtually empty restaurant, and we felt very much included in next door's conversation as I'm sure they did in ours.
We won't be going back but it's ok with a taste card - I certainly wouldn't recommend it at full price. "

‘Yorkshire fettle, radicchio, grapefruit and fennel salad now on,’ chef Elliott Lidstone had tweeted.
And what a treat: a salad that, as salads seldom do, seemed much more than the sum of its parts with grilled radicchio, pink grapefruit, wafer-thin fennel, plus tiny capers and parsley, and the more subtle British version of feta.
Crisp slivers of pig’s ear with apple sauce was a world-beating bar snack to match the local beers on a terrific drinks list.
Gorgeous guinea fowl on puy lentils with salsa verde, and trout with watercress, slivers of apple, celeriac and an English mustard sauce both packed in sensational combinations of tangy, salty, sharp, sweet, earthy, peppery flavours.
Everything about this gloriously updated former corner pub is bang on, with proper linen napkins, only 50p per person for unlimited house bottled water and local bread, and meat supplied by the Ginger Pig across the road.
