High quality seasonal ingredients and a clever touch in the kitchen are just the starting, but arguably the most important, points of this popular local pub which exudes warmth and bonhomie. Cornish lobster ravioles with a Cognac lobster bisque or seared queen Scottish scallops, leek compote, lemon beurre blanc, Oscietra caviar and a Parmesano crisp are trypical starters. These might be followed by a stonker of a bouillabaisse, line-caught Cornish halibut with turmeric crush potatoes and pickled sea weed or wood-roasted beef Wellington with mushroom duxelles and Bayonne ham. Throw in wilted spinach and triple cooked chips for the full experience, and add an artisan French cheese board or traditional crêpes Suzettes to finish. Serious cooking, with “London” prices to match.
