    Lovely lunch at the Lazy Elephant. Food and service were excellent. Ambience in the garden was relaxing. Could have spent all afternoon sat there chatting, eating and drinking. The chef was happy to describe all the dishes and was clearly passionate about his ingredients and menu.

    For a Wednesday evening we were surprised at how busy it was. The food and service were excellent and we had a great evening.
