    We had lunch in the Brasserie for our 30th Wedding Anniversary & it was outstanding! We had the tuna tacos, delicious, tandori monkfish, burrata, then hake with curry sauce, pork chop with apple sauce, crispy anna potates with parmesan and green beans in shallot butter, for dessert I had the tiramisu profiterole. All absolutely beautiful. We had a bottle of Gavi di Gavi Silvestre Fossili - gorgeous, and a few cocktails beforehand. Perfect in every way, also our waiter was great too!!

    We had lunch there having never been before but I immediately thought after looking at the menu and great wine list that I would have ideally had dinner there as I think that thats when you would get the best out of what the Poet has to offer. Food was of a very high standard. Also great service which is hard to get these days, especially in the counties. I would definately go back there. I am pretty fussy where I spend money and have had the benefit of dining well over my lifetime so stay away from average. There are maybe 3 places I would go within a 20 mile radius of where I live and I think that the Poet is now on that list. Well done to them. Feels like a team that deserves recognition and support.
