Went to celebrate with 7 colleagues,our big birthdays( 50 and 60!!) with delicious afternoon tea. The decor is really good,very welcoming and chic,the food was delicious,and the service really good. However,if I may add 2 disappointing things,the 1 st one,coffee were not part of the prices( only teas). 2 of my colleagues don't drink tea... And the second one,I ended up having a fine of 100 as I didn't realising that you have to give your car registration on arrival but was not prompted,or given the tablet when I 1 st arrived.However,after calling the restaurant few days later,they asked me my car registration and said that the fine was cancelled...pfew... Over all,a great venue if you have special occasion to celebrate and great food.Will come again ( and this tie will make sure I put my car registration in...)

This was my first time visiting this restaurant. Upon arrival we were greeted by the waitress who took us to our table straight away. Drinks were brought over promptly before our orders were taken around 5 minutes later. The food was delicious and fresh, and each course took around 10 minutes to be brought out. The staff were attentive and professional, and asked how our meals were throughout the experience. Portion sizes were perfect for a three course lunch. The interior was a fair size, and there is also an upstairs dining area for groups/events. Overall I would visit again in the future. Only drawback would be the limited number of parking spaces outside.

What an absolutely fantastic night. The food was top notch, the service was second to none, but our evening was made by our serving staff, in particular Stacy. The guy couldn’t do enough for us. If you’ve not been before, go, you’ll be glad you did. Thankyou Stacy and team for a great night. We will be back.

Fabulous evening and the food was amazing. The highlight was Stacy and his team who could not have been more attentive. Would certainly return due to the level of service we received

We went to the newly opened Pecks restaurant on Saturday (in the Leone restaurant at the Lion and Swan). We have been going to Pecks for years and went with my parents who have been going since it opened. We were hopeful that it would be just as good as the old Pecks and it did not disappoint. The food was beautiful as always and the service was brilliant. On entry we went into the back bar area where we were served promptly, however others were not as lucky and were waiting a while (we put this down to teething issues though as only 2nd night open). We were then called through to the dining area where we were seated and our glorious 7 course meal was started. The food was exceptional and each course well thought out. Between the four of us, we ordered a variety of food and it was all lovely. The only course that we felt slightly let down by was the deserts as the 'chocolate orange roulade' did not taste of orange and one of the other cakes was a bit tasteless. However overall we were more than happy with the food and left very full. The staff were brilliant and attentive and as always, knew all the information about the food that they come around and present. We had a great night and would not hesitate to go back.

Great treat night out, it is unique and definitely something to remember a spacial occasion. The food was extraordinary but pay attention and choose wisely when the food is presented as the beef meal was overpowered by the horse radish. Overall a great selection of meals and all very tasty, we struggled to fit in all of the courses but they do offer a take out if you can't fit the desert and cheese board in. Be prepared for a late one as dinner at 8 finished after 11, so late taxi or drive home. Not cheap but very special.
