First course arrived delicious, then given Amuse bouche, freshly made on premises. Choice of 3 different dishes for main course. Delicious deserts and coffees. This time totally different “no bread butter offered and no amuse bouche.” Meals were ok 2 course £15 and 3 course £18. Would say the way it was presented and cooked a totally different Chef. A little disappointing.

A nice variation on a pub classic. I opted for the vegetarian option of the mushroom stroganoff and I have to say it was probably the nicest version of this dish that I have sampled. The variety of types of mushrooms in the dish was quite exotic and far removed from the usual mundane button mushrooms. The crispy polenta and kale added to the mix of interesting tastes. Again, a great variant on a popular vegetarian dish. Overall, a very pleasant culinary experience, enjoyed with a pint of a local Welsh ale.

The beef was tough, the roast potatoes tasted like the frozen variety and not proper gravy. Worst of all the vegetables were all served in one bowl between four people so it was impossible to be selective as you could serve up soggy cauliflower cheese which carrots, peas etc. in one scoop. When we complained about the vegetables the chef must have taken exception as they brought out a huge bowl carrots. I did not want to leave a review but as I wrote to Leicester's and received no reply I thought others needed to aware before booking.

We were a party of 4 adults and a baby. We were not disappointed, the restaurant itself is very beautiful in a old building with lots of character and the food was really good. There was no children's menu available but the lovely staff were happy to cook up some soft cauliflower cheese for our little one. A very enjoyable experience and I would absolutely recommend this restaurant, especially for valentines day and anniversaries as it does have a lovely romantic feel to it.

It felt different this time and a bit of a mixed bag really. The portions of bread appeared a little stale around the edges. Starters were good. Unfortunately for 32.00 each the steak was a bit of a disappointment. Overcooked and fatty around the edges. Desert was great and very well presented. Like a lot of places, prices have understandably increased but it felt like the service and standards were a bit hit and miss.
