    We enjoyed a lovely Sunday Lunch in a lovely location providing excellent service. Low Bradfield is an excellent location and start point for lovely walks around local reservoirs. Finishing off with a super meal makes for an excellent day out.

    My wife treated me to breakfast at Lunar on my birthday recently. Food was excellent and choice for breakfast/brunch was ideal for us. Service was good, attentive but not intrusive. I also enjoyed a delicious cocktail, despite the early hour. We enjoyed the experience very much and will certainly return. My treat next time.
