Fabulous restaurant. We have eaten at the old Stubborn duckling and were not disappointed with the new premises. It hasn't lost any of its charm and the food was still top quality. All staff were friendly and helpful. We had the Sunday roast and can highly recommend.

We were a table of 6 for Sunday lunch. It was a special occasion and we had a nice, large table with plenty of space. Everything was available on the menu. The food was piping hot, fresh and we all enjoyed our meals. The squid from the starter menu was particularly great.

We were a group of 6 say for my birthday and the food was spectacular. Most of us had 3 courses, the timings between courses were great and there wasn’t an aspect of food that we could criticise - every element on the plate had been though through.

Wonderful. Service was lovely and friendly. Food was just delicious. We had soda bread and arancini to start with followed by the lamb and fillet steak. Every single bite was fantastic. Will go again on our next visit.
