    A nice meal, I had catch of the day with fondant potato, which happened to be hake. It was very nice, service was good, arrived quick enough. Only reason it's 4 star not 5 is that the portion was too small for the price charged. The hake portion was very small, and the meal wasn't rich enough to get away with such a small amount. The duck on the other hand seemed to be a decent portion. The panacotta was very good.

    Absolutely superb food orientated pub hidden a short distance from the city centre. We enjoyed complimentary homemade bread with chicken gravy and butter. Main course of cod, one with a bisque sauce and the other with pickled mussels. Also enjoyed fantastic pineapple and pain-aux-raisin and chocolate deserts. Took our dog and we were accommodated in the Adit bar which was very comfortable. Nice friendly service.
