We were not pushed to leave after eating, very relaxed and welcome atmosphere. Our friends from Wiltshire were very impressed. Always recommend the Highwayman.

There is a really good selection of drinks and nice to see some nice alcohol free cocktails too. I had a lovely ipa which showed how well the cellar is managed, the pint arrived at the table completely milky to the bottom and it took ages to fully settle, a sign of a really good pint! 4 stars for service, because we were stood near the bar looking puzzled for a while and were ignored by some passing staff when we clearly had just arrived and didn't know where to go and who to speak to about being seated. Once seated though, the staff were excellent. Maybe a sign near the door giving some instruction would be good. 4 stars for food, the portion size of some of the starters in our party seemed a bit stingy. Would probably return if passing.
