My wife and I had a fantastic night here a few weeks prior to our visit last night, but unfortunately our experience last night was terribly disppointing. For balance and completness the food itself is very good, tasty elevated pub fare. The cod was well...cooked, the chorizo jam had a very punchy flavour and the sauce was well balanced. The beef cheek croquette was again tasty amd not too heavy. The good enjoyed. However, the night was spoilt by the service which was frankly awful. Sat down for dinner at 6.45. Took an age to be asked for our order. starter served at 7.45. mains at 8.45. very slow. fine in isolulation not a big deal we were not in a rush. The food when it did come out, whilst tasty was tepid in temprature. The side orders of bbq potatoes and triple cooked chips didnt come out with the means and we had to chase this up. The side orders came out after we had already eaten half our main courses. After our mains had been eaten we were told that if we wanted desserts we would need to eat down stairs, we questioned the fact it had taken 2 1/2 hours for us tp be served and eat two courses , and to be spoken to in an arrogant blaise way was poor. When the desserts came out, or so we thought, they were wrong courses. Back they went to the kitchen , more waiting no apologies. After eating we did move tables and we were given a free drink, a nice touch. However the big and frankly the nail in the coffin was when visiting the bathroom hearing waiting staff bad mouthing our party saying that they would not leave a tip etc. We hadnt even been presented witg the bill at this stage. At the end of the meal waiting staff commenting a laughing to each other looking over at our table. Extremely poor and unprofessional. A real real shame. You will see from my earlier review I speak as I find and real wanted to like Larder but we wont be back again after this experience.More

Third visit to Larder and warmth of welcome, standard of service and quality of food consistent every time. The menu has been completely different each time and always includes something original or a new take on something classic. Thanks for a lovely evening.

Came to treat my wife of one month to a special dinner. Found the front of house very attentive (tattoo on forearm, didn’t see name), made pleasant small talk on way to table and started us with drinks that came faster than I could sit...down. The room was louder than I anticipated a Michelin rated restaurant too be and almost resembled a ‘curry house’ environment, lucky for me we love curry houses! This comment is only a minor detail, made blurry by the undeniable attentiveness shown by waiting staff. Noticed at least two pairs of eyes scanning all tables, at all times. My wife wanted carbonara (as did I) but we wanted to add chicken. Slightly bashful given the accreditation of the venue the waitress quietly made a request directly to the chef and chicken was added. A wink from across the room to confirm put us both at ease. Ordered fries with starters which never came, once communicated to waitress, were removed with 100 apologies. Gave tip anyway as it was deserved. Only takeaway or advice I’d pass as a first time customer would be to somehow figure out a way to sharpen the ambience. We appreciate that’s mission almost impossible. Thanks for a great night x Russ and Mel FlynnMore

Booked a table for a Friday evening meal, greeted with a warm welcome and smile. Food was amazing, starter of blue cheese beignet was delicious followed by the Cod, again cooked to perfection and lovely. Carbonara was moorish. Finished with choc and orange mille feuille,...the perfect pudding. Special mention to Maddie, attentive but not intrusive, just great!More

We visited Larder again Saturday evening. As soon as we arrived we were greeted by very friendly staff and the atmosphere was very warm & welcoming. I had the succulent king prawn starter and the market fish dish for main which was very delicious and...tasty. As always the staff were very friendly and attentive and the whole evening was very enjoyable. We look forward to returning very soon. Thank you all at Larder for another fantastic evening.More

Great spot needs a slight refinement , the food was good but chips extra hard and extra dry was a real shame, steak was good but fat needed cooking a bit to perfect the steak but no complaints … great service and definitely another visit...is dueMore

We came to The Larder with family for a Saturday evening meal and were really impressed by the attention to detail on presentation, service and overall atmosphere. Although the menu isn’t too extensive, there are some great classic favourites which hit the spot and went...down very well with our party - I particularly enjoyed the Carbonara which is a favourite dish of mine but one that I rarely order in restaurants as too often it tastes very ‘eggy’, but the chefs at Larder did it perfectly. The only complaint I have is with the chocolate orange mille feuille on the dessert menu… the pastry was not at all the right pastry for a mille feuille as it was not crumbly with lots of thin layers and had the taste and texture of a savoury biscuit, which made the dessert quite a disappointment as I was expecting it to be really well done like the other dishes. That said, we had a lovely evening overall and would love to return soon!More

Food and service amazing. Had the chili and lime prawns to start which were so fresh and delicious followed by the dish of the day which was hake in a Thai green sauce with steamed broccoli. Cooked to perfection and so tasty.More

Went for our 30th wedding anniversary and booked the kitchen table experience (highly recommended). Just brilliant from start to finish. Service, food, everything was amazing. 5* all the way!

We celebrated our 25th Wedding Anniversary here last night. Yet again a fantastic meal. We have been a few times here, with friends and as a couple and have always enjoyed the evening. Great food and the atmosphere was perfect.

My husband an I visited Larder early evening for our Wedding Anniversary. We were given complimentary Prosecco which was a lovely touch on arrival . The staff were all very friendly and efficient. Our food was good. The homemade soup was excellent and the beef...cheek croquettes were tasty as our starters . The fillet steak was delicious and the lamb was enjoyed by my husband . We did not have dessert as we were too full . A very pleasant evening .More

The format has changed considerably. It is no longer a high-end restaurant but resembles a gastro pub type of menu. This is not what we expected. The food was ok but dreadful vegetarian selection and generally not much menu choice.More
