We had a very lovely meal at Knoll House, lots of different choices of food, they were very accommodating towards my Mum, she has a small appetite and they plated her choices accordingly nothing was too much effort, fish and meat was superb, and the accompanying vegetables had been cooked with a light touch - not over cooked or soggy, perfect in everyway . Couldnt fault anything.

We arrived for an early Sunday lunch, the restaurant was already filling up and there was a great atmosphere. The food coming out of the kitchen looked amazing, we were a group of 6 and we all wanted everything we saw! We mostly stuck to the roast beef which was cooked to perfection, with crispy roast potatoes, vegetables and a massive Yorkshire pudding and delicious gravy, and couldn't resist the cauliflower cheese add-on, which was almost a meal in itself! We also succumbed to a selection of puddings: the madeleines with toffee sauce, lemon meringue and a chocolate mousse - they were all polished off very happily! The service was prompt and friendly, with a pleasant air of authority. My second visit in a week and can't wait to go back again! Thank you!

Amazing steak night, cooked to perfection & included mushroom, chips, peas, a sauce of your choice & a bottle of wine. Top area near the bar is dog friendly which is a bonus. Excellent service, nothing too much trouble. Will definitely go again.
