We popped in after having a stroll around Knaresborough and asked if they did a home delivery service. Very friendly staff. Food arrived promptly and was absolutely stunning. Up there with some of the best eleven eaten. Already planning our next trip in which we will dine at the restaurant.

Been here a couple of times now. The food is perfect! Staff are un-faultable and will customise any meal to your requirements. The only reason I gave 4 stars for atmosphere is because it was quiet and I cant understand why. It should be full. This place is amazing.
