Highly recommended! A fantastic experience from start to finish. We were treated to a 7 course tasting menu and were very pleased with every course. From the Japanese milk bread to the aged duck and then the rhubarb dessert our tastebuds were delighted at every turn. A lovely evening of indulgence !

The tasting menu was superb, and the dry-aged duck was sublime. If you want an exquisite fine dining experience then you are in for a treat. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
We booked the taster menu on Saturday evening. Mr J Gill From arriving we were approached by a very friendly polite gentleman and all staff were happy and professional All waitresses and waiters were amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed every course and tried things we had never tried before and loved! We are so impressed we will be booking to go again very soon. We definitely recommend ordering the wine flight with the meal. This really enhanced and complimented every course. Thank you The Walrus! What an experience.

What an amazing experience trying the tasting menu. The restaurant was very good about my food allergy and changed one dish to make it suitable. The flavours of each dish were perfectly balanced with the seasonal ingredients. We particularly enjoyed the lamb dish and the rhubarb desert was perfectly light and refreshing before the decadent chocolate and peanut desert. Staff were very attentive and explained each dish as it was presented. Looking forward to going again in the near future. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Took my Dad and other members of our family here for his 80th Birthday. We had the 'taster menu ' after some deliberation; the taster menu being a combination of the A la Carte courses served as mini dishes. The combination of ingredients, flavours combined to make each dish a taste experience. Some I preferred to others, but that 's the idea of the tasting menu. Perhaps, going back it would have been nice to have one course, but without tasting them all first, it would have been difficult to pick out which one! Great value meal.
Good quality taster menu which you can have with a wine flight. Good service. Not cheap but well worth it for that special celebration, we thoroughly enjoyed it and will be going back
This small coffee shop is lovely. The staff are very friendly and the coffee is just as good, if not better, than the famous coffee chains. They offer a wide variety of homemade cakes and other delicious menu items that are priced very reasonably.
I visited this restaurant on Sunday and tried their homemade Shrewsbury biscuits which were deliciously baked and had a welcoming fragrance. I also ordered the Java wrap special, a latte with a freshly made wrap filled with speck, sausage, and scrambled eggs. The staff was friendly and the service was great, I will definitely be returning.
This lovely little café offers delicious and freshly prepared drinks. The level of service may vary depending on the person serving you.

Great food and drinks, nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Hope the tasting menu changes regularly because I already want to go back!
Went to the Walrus yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed our evening. Attentive and knowledgeable young staff and an outstanding tasting menu. A must not miss for anyone looking for a great atmosphere and a wonderful dining experience.
