The Stag has been recently taken over and had a fantastic sympathetic refurbishment. The menu is quite small so as someone that doesn’t eat meat my choices were more limited , however I did have the fish and chips which was delicious, lovely fresh fish and a crispy batter with homemade chips and minty peas . The tartare sauce was freshly made . My husband had a steak which he said was perfect. The fact that the menu isn’t large means that everything is fresh . Having it re open is such a bonus for this area and we look forward to our next visit .

They must be doing something right being my third visit, but first special occasion. However, I am still not disappointed at the service offered and, as expected, satisfied. Well done!

Delicious food. Lovely friendly service. Two and three course deal is excellent value.

Valentine’s Day Prix Fixe Menu- such a lovely choice of dishes, completely different to the normal Prix Fixe Lunch, I had vegetable tarte flambé , followed by goat’s cheese soufflé which was served with beetroot, walnuts and salad my chosen dessert was chocolate liegois, served with langues de chat biscuits. All three course were sublime and I enjoyed a kir aperitif followed by a glass of house rose wine accompany this special meal. My husband chose duck magre with salad and potato to start, followed by pork cheeks with pommes purée ( which he declared”melt in the mouth!)@ and he chose a dessert of. Pear and almond tart, served with crème fraiche, all of which he thoroughly enjoyed! We ended with our usual delicious espressos which provided the right touch for an exceptional lunch.. We have been visiting this “gem” of a restaurant for almost ten years now and it involves a round trip of almost forty miles! It is more than worth the travel!

We received a voucher for Blackfriars for Christmas. Booking was easy online. We arrived slightly early but our table was ready. The restaurant was not busy when we arrived and enjoyed the background music. Service was very good and we asked if we could mix and match between the menu’s and they said it was fine to do that. We ordered the fish platter to share which was really nice. I ordered the fillet steak, it was perfectly cooked to the way I like it and the chips were amazing, I ordered the beef dripping jus which was delicious. My husband ordered the corn fed chicken, again this was delicious. We had no room for desert so can’t comment on that. My husband also had the larger brewed onsite which he said was very nice. Only fault I would say is they put a service charge of 10% on your bill but it is explained it is not mandatory. Definitely will be back.
