First visit here as moving to Wells . Great service and wonderful menu . My starter of buffalo mozzarella and heritage tomatoes tasted fresh and divine . Food all beautifully presented. The price was as you’d expect for such a lovely meal. Will definitely go back .

A small group of us ate lunch here on 12 May. I enjoyed my Asian style fish for starter and pork belly with delicious crackling and creamed potatoes for main. Others had risotto which was tasty. We thoroughly recommend this restaurant.

Had a lunch with a friend and was very impressed with the food and service. The interior is nicely done. Chairs comfortable and tables well spaced. The belly pork was delicious and the chocolate mousse pudding was equally lovely. Well priced and good choices. Would highly recommend and would return!

I almost don't want to say how good this restaurant is in case we can't get a table in the future. Second time here for Sunday lunch. The food is excellent and the staff happily accommodated gluten free and dairy free diners. Highly recommend.

I went with a friend at lunchtime and we both enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere and cleanliness of the restaurant and the very tasty, beautifully cooked, food. A starter and main or a main and pudding were on offer at £20, plus £5 for a medium sized glass of house wine. All good value and delicious and served by young, welcoming and efficient staff. Wells needed a restaurant like this one and the city is lucky to have it. We will definitely go again, perhaps to eat next time in the pretty courtyard garden out back.
