Best Lunch Restaurants in Hayfield

A relaxed late afternoon/early-evening Sunday Christmas treat for four. Luckily they weren't too busy as we probably over stayed our welcome! Food first: There was a Sunday (Festive) Menu on, which didn't have too many options for mains, but didn't disappoint: Cauliflower soup, Salmon starters and the two roast dinners were excellent, and even the Fish and Chips were very good. Sizeable portions meant only one of the party could manage a dessert: Christmas Pudding with (I think) Creme Anglais was eagerly finished and described as "tasty: spicy with a good shot of booze". Nice selection of wines at reasonable prices: the women of the party had a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc which was described as "ooh, that's nice"! Lovely setting, nice comfy settees for drinks, friendly staff - attentive but not overbearing. In hindsight, if we were being very, very picky, the large-ish downstairs room was a tad on the cool side but it's probably fine if it's busier (we ate at a fairly odd time, about 4.30 on a Sunday afternoon). All in all, we'd definitely recommend and will certainly return.

Sensational food and cocktails as always. The service is always so friendly and makes you feel so welcome too.

The food here us excellent and very good value for money. The staff are friendly and polite.

It was my daughter’s birthday and we wanted to try somewhere different. This place was lovely. Both food and ambiance were perfect. We had a really great night.

Our third visit having previously tried a breakfast and evening meal we opted for lunch. We had two battered fish sandwiches, ham hock and a Christmas Caesar sandwich all served with a side of fries. Everyone enjoyed their meal and I had the latter. My turkey was hot, tender and not dry, delicious. A nice proportion of Caesar salad to bread ratio on a lightly toasted roll with an accompanying side of crunchy fries. With 3 breakfast teas and an americano coffee the bill for four was a little over £58. Given the quality on offer I would advise booking as not surprisingly we only just got a table at 1pm. Highly recommend
