Seriously excellent the food! We take our "most foodie" friends here: folk who really know their food and appreciate Huite Cuisine. The style is Anglo-French food at it's very best with sauces that complement but don't overpower the flavour of meat, fish, vegetables and fruits. The wine (and Champaign) lists are exceptional with each tasted by the proprietor and sold at a fair price. So if it is fine dining or a special occasion Vanilla is top of our recommendations. It is expensive: allow £40 - £50 a head but worth it.

If you are thinking of going there at a weekend book well in advance directly or ask us to do so for you.
