One of the best meals I’ve ever had. Terrine of wild boar with relish. Lamb three ways, with potatoes, green beans, and an extraordinary melange of eggplant and other vegetables. Very nice poached pear. Proprietor is a delight. Finally, the price is right.

This place appears to be a local favourite with a slightly eccentric chap running the place. The food is like grandma used to make but worth vowing for the pleasant atmosphere and the collection of chicken memorabilia
