    We had a very enjoyable Sunday lunch which was delicious, we sat outside in the sunshine in the courtyard which was very pleasant. I would definitely recommend trying this restaurant.

    Sunday lunch. Main meal. Crusted Lamb over cooked. Crust dry, no flavour, literally scattered over meat. Gravy, gluppy and dried onto neat. Overall not impressed. Saving grace, a wonderful lemon posset !

    A lovely evening. Although the service was a little slow we were well looked after and the surroundings were great. The food was very good, some courses outstanding. In particular, the pigeon starter was outstanding and the pork belly main. The catch of the day was slightly overcooked but still very tasty.

    What a find. First time to Podshavers and we were made so welcome. Dining was a pleasure and all staff very friendly with nothing they wouldn't do to make our visit a success. The food was excellent, beautifully presented and perfect for our Golden Wedding celebration. We will certainly return, hopefully very soon with friends who will thoroughly enjoy it. Many, many congratulations to all.

    We haven’t been here many times, but each time the food has been beautifully made. The new young chef was superb! Great service, beautiful setting and great food. Very happy
