A nice atmosphere and decor, tables were well set out with ample space around. Food was tasty; the black pudding scotch egg was nicely cooked, with a runny yolk. The mushroom risotto was perfect albeit a little expensive - probably due to the truffle. Partner ate from the set menu, which was exceptionally good value. I would definitely return if eating in the area again.

Lovely experience at Fishworks! The sole was amazing as was the tuna carpaccio. Our Server was helpful and prompt with any of our requests. He even found some extra crayons for our kids to use on the kids menu.
