A relaxed yet elevated dining experience, the team here are definitely focused on delivering not only a fine dining tasting platter but also engaging the customer in the journey of the food and wine.
It was such a relaxed experience even though you are literally in the kitchen and watching how they prepare and deliver your food.
The food may seem small but the flavour certainly packs a punch and if you really want yo elevate your experience then get the wine pairing and enjoy the delicate and robust flavours that it brings to the dining.

With such fantastic reviews we were expecting great things for a birthday visit, sadly left feeling short changed.

The atmosphere and space itself is great, it's light and modern with part of the kitchen at one end of the room which all tables of two point towards, a nice concept meaning you can chat and watch what's going on at the same time. Music mostly good with a few odd tracks chucked in.

Staff were very nice and welcoming, detailed in their explanations although we had trouble hearing most of what our waiter was explaining to us.

Food - on the whole the food was very good but not great. There's a lot of skill on show and some tasty, balanced dishes. However, when charging prices like this I'm expecting more than it being just as good as a lot of other non tasting menu restaurants that charge a lot less. The main course was the biggest disappointment - essentially a fancy pie and mash (pomme puree) where the puree and sauce were far too salty, the pie was just a pie and a hare loin was that a comically tiny morsel on a huge plate (see picture). Dessert was tasty but too sugary. In pictures from other favourable reviews I see more interesting plates, maybe we got unlucky. The bread from yellowhammer was great.

Drinks - we had the mixed pairing, while we enjoyed the variety and flavour of all of them we still felt incredibly short changed here. One wine, low alcohol fizz, Kernal saison, soft drink and a tea for £66 (inc service) is obscene. Generally small measures and one top up. Several times left drinking water as I didn't want to pay even more money for an extra wine. The saison came with the main course which was a big dissapointment, I'd have much preferred a decent red wine but maybe that's personal pairing preference. I regret ordering the mixed drinks menu and it's absurd that it cost me the same as 3 bottles of wine!

Overall I really really wanted to like this place but looking at the bill I just can't recommend you spend so much money here. It simply wasnt worth it.

Easily one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in the UK thanks to the menu of course, but also the emphasis on readily available seasonal produce which is beautifully and thoughtfully featured by a very skilled team.
The setting is charmingly authentic yet unexpectedly whimsical. The theatre of the centrally located open kitchen adds (a great deal) to the electric atmosphere and the evening unfolds at a leisurely and luxurious pace.
The wine pairing was just another thing that delightfully punctuated the evening and the sommelier was both knowledgeable and approachable, not to mention a generous pourer! Highly recommend!
All-in-all an incredibly indulgent night of understated romance and fantastic British fare.

Fantastically welcoming and engaging staff, in an open kitchen that feels frank rather than performative. Getting a comprehensive description of each dish can sometimes feel like it's intended to impress rather than inform, but here the introductions were all about the origins of the ingredients, the suppliers, and the time the staff had spent with them. The food itself is as exquisitely crafted from a fine dining experience, and the pairings particularly well curated. The option for an alcohol-free or mixed pairing was really welcome as someone travelling to the restaurant.

What else is there to say other than wow! No actual menu, you get what is given to you & it's a wonderful experience. One of us had the wine with food option so had a different wine with each course. It blew him away as the wines were so much in harmony with the food. The other two shared a bottle of red wine. I had sparkling water as I don't drink so can't really comment on the quality of the wine but the three others were very positive. The staff were very attentive, friendly & knowledgeable. We could see the food being prepared & it was so far away from The Bear It was calm, thoughtful, teamwork at its best.
All in all we had a fantastic evening.
NB: There's a free (after 6.00pm) car park next to St Mary's church. WTLGI is a one to two minute walk from the car park.
