We had a delightful experience at the Eyre Arms. We turned up early without a lunchtime booking on Valentine's Day and easily got a table in the light and spacious extension area, overlooking a pretty garden.
The lunchtime menu didn't include the evening's specials, but it was still very good.
Chef was very accommodating regarding special requests - I had gammon, fried egg, boiled potatoes and salad. The gammon was cooked fat-free as requested, with fat removed. The salad looked small, but it was very generous once I'd deconstructed it. One of the nice meals I've had whilst avoiding fats.

We had heard it had changed hands, the chef cooks to how he wants it, blood was running out of the meat and he said that was how it should be cooked. When we complained and asked to speak to the chef the waitress walked away tutting, the chef came out and had an appalling attitude, no apologies. You get a little for a lot of money, we shall not be...
