Weekend dinner menu – 29 & 30 June 2018

You’ve got to love us Brits in a heat wave. Whilst most folk would be sat in the courtyard with perhaps a glass of chilled Rose and a starter of potted Devon crab we also get customers at a table indoors hunched over bowls of steaming soup on the hottest day of the year. The fish supplier just called with Line caught and tagged Cornish pollock for tomorrows delivery. Caught by Darren Jose from his day boat Sea Maiden out at sea from Hayle Harbour it doesn’t get much fresher or sustainable. Tables for the weekend are available. Please call us on 01453 832808

Weekend menu – Friday 18 & Saturday 19 August 2017

A sign of the times perhaps but I see the Vegan cafe around the corner is closing down this week and the little coffee shop up on the top is closed and has a bailiffs notice attached to the front door. We had a call this week from someone who said they had not been in for some time and asking if we still did tapas. The previous owners of our business did a form of tapas with San Miguel on draught but they left in summer 2003! You’ll find a lot can change if you leave it 14 years between visits. Just ordered our fresh fish delivery for the morning and we have tables available for both Friday and Saturday dinner at time of writing. As always please call us on 01453 832808 to book yours. Saturday brunch served from 11a.m.

A new record of sorts……we had customers eating and drinking in the garden every evening last week. On Wednesday all our tables ate outside so it looked as though we had an empty restaurant if you passed by. Thankfully that was not the case. Rain forecast for this week though but you never know.

Mid week menu 20 to 22 June 2017

We got the courtyard set up and stood by for a busy Saturday brunch and…….nothing happened! We had a few in but none of our “regulars” showed up and Nailsworth was like a ghost town. I guess the garden or the seaside were a bigger draw on the hottest day of the year so far. Hopefully better luck next week.
