Booked for a weekday visit and to be honest were slightly surprised we were the only table in the restaurant, however we shouldn't have worried as the service and food were first class. Everything freshly cooked, nothing too fancy but generous portions. Menu had both meat and fish dishes. Nothing was too much trouble and we had a good chat with the owners at the end of the meal. A great experience and would certainly visit again if in Walkworth.

Fantastic food, first rate service and charming atmosphere. Not the cheapest but then you get what you pay for and it's worth every penny. Thoroughly recommended. I will be going again.

Decided to have lunch after a visit to Warkworth Castle. This restaurant is a family run establishment serving good quality food. I can thoroughly recommend the pickled herring starter and the lemon sole fillet served with mini roast potatoes and vegetables. My wife had a bowl of lovely soup and the vegetarian dish of the day. This was followed by Meringue with cream and a raspberry purée whilst I ended the meal with Coconut and Passion Fruit Panna Cotta. We would certainly return if we holiday in the surrounding area again.

My auntie wanted to go here for a few years and never got the chance. We finally booked and it was worth the wait. Great food and great hospitality would recommend if you are in the area.

We ate here last night for the first time. Lovely home cooked food, good selection of nicely cooked veg and potatoes. Duck cooked just right, sauce very tasty and steak and kidney pie lovely. Starters and desserts lovely too. Don’t know why we left it so long to eat here but we will definitely eat here again. Owners were very welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend

Lovely home cooked food. The steak and kidney pie was excellent. Came with a nice range of veg and potatoes.Treacle pudding was thick but light and delicious with a scoop of ice cream.

Quaint place run by a rather eccentric couple in what feels like their front room. The food was rather bland; reminded me of home cooking in the 50s.
This restaurant is an absolute gem. It has been run by a lovely couple for 38 years and, having visited last week when we were staying in the area, we can understand how they have been going for so long. The food is fabulous, home cooked style in the very best sense of the phrase. I had the steak and kidney pie which was amazing - proper home made pastry and meat which just melted. The vegetables were lovely, fresh and perfectly cooked and seasoned. My wife had the lamb chops and said they were the best she has eaten anywhere. The ingredients are all locally sourced and of exceptional quality. The atmosphere is lovely and it really feels as if you’re dining with friends / family. We both said that if we lived in Warkworth we would go every week.

Lovely food in old-fashioned yet charming surroundings. Maybe consider dispensing with the many placemats but otherwise don't change a thing. Genuinely well cooked food, fair prices, cosy place. We enjoyed it very much.

Fantastic attentive service here by the owners. Really good food and plenty of choice. Steaks cooked exactly. Also fish, chicken very good. Well worth a visit. Small restaurant best to book.

The place is located in a lovely village with several really nice shops, restaurants and pubs. But this is not one of them. The décor is very dated but clean. The Sunday lunch was the worst I've ever eaten, meat overcooked, vegetables were like mush. But worst of all was the mashed potatoes were like Smash!!

This was a unique dining experience! The decor is very dated and has a traditional atmosphere. We had a unique experience as we were the only diners that evening! The food was very good. The duck was cooked beautifully although the sauce was a little sweet for me. The salmon fish cakes were very tasty. The vegetables were nicely cooked if a little plain. For puddings we had the meringues and crème brûlée - both were very good. The owners were very friendly and we were made to feel very welcome.
