Another return for more treats. The little touches, not on the menu, are most impressive; as in the popping sensation of the lemon amuse-bouche, a wide selection of delicious, home-made breads, the gorgeous caramel chocolate truffles with the coffee - all rounded off our gourmet lunch beautifully. If beef is your pleasure - well, you cannot go wrong by ordering the one on the menu - succulent and so tender if almost melts in your mouth! The pork belly is excellent too and artistically served. This restaurant certainly does not disappoint. Covid hasn't dampened the real flair in the kitchen, the staff are well protected, the place very clean and tables well spaced. Thank you Nut Tree for another excellent meal.

My husband and I booked this to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We couldn’t fault the service and the staff were warm and welcoming. This is the first Michelin starred restaurant I have visited that has changed the wine selection on the wine flight to match my non fish dish off the taster menu (changed due to an allergy). I really appreciated this little touch.
