    Had a pretty below par experience last week but was invited back by the establishment to try them again - thanks Chef Gareth. This time the food was 5* and back where it should be. I love the fact that Orange Tree took the time out to fix things. Thank you.

    Extensive menu with something for everyone. Very reasonable prices considering the high quality of the food. We both had the lobster, prawn risotto which was the best I had ever had. Generous portions so took some home. Friendly service and spotlessly clean. Highly recommended.

    Usually the food is fantastic however the fish and and chips that was one of the main courses ordered was terrible. The chips were perfect however the fish was terrible. The batter was not golden but very dark almost as if overcooked. But also the batter did not toast right for some reason. It appeared as if whoever made the batter did a really poor job of it resulting in a horrible looking and tasting fish dinner.

    I have visited the Orange Tree many times. Menu is varied, the specials board always offers something different... I visited on a Monday lunch time and it was pretty much full, service however wasn't compromised. For a change I opted for the Lasagne, I usually have the Fish Pie. I wasn't disappointed.
