Firstly, it has to be pointed out, that this is not your everyday Restaurant, as it's part of a College and is used primarily to offer people the opportunity to dine, in an environment that is focussed on the development of young catering and hospitality students, to hone their skills, in a proper environment. They offer lunch time menus, that are exceptional value and as a result are very well attended, by those in the know. The Evening meals are usually on set days and are themed, based on the thoughts of either one person or a team. The one we attended yesterday, was based around James Bond and consisted of 7 courses, that were more in line with what could be referred to, as a taster menu, but was nevertheless very enjoyable. Every course was very tasty, well presented and complimented it's predecessor and was excellent value. Our waitress was extremely attentive, courteous and will be a real asset to whoever employs her. She asked us if we would require wine and we advised her that we don't actually drink alcohol and she was quick to point out, that the menu had a Martini Sorbet in it, which contained alcohol, however it was not an issue and was delightful. Another person on another table was a vegetarian and they changed a couple of the courses to suit. The whole Team on the night was excellent and deserved a round of applause for their efforts. During the day, there is also a Bakery in the College, that is open to the public and turns out some really nice products, at decent prices. This is one of those places, that is really different and if you want to see young people being encouraged to shine, in their chosen profession, then you should enjoy your visit, but don't tell everyone, as it's a little gem.

Each course was of high quality and beatifully presented, as good as we've had in 5* hotels. Two choices per course, no problem for any of our party.
