Heskyn Mill — Restaurant in England

Well, it said chicken on the menu & it looked like chicken on the plate, but it was really tough & all we can say is I hope it didn't bark in a former life. All 3 of us left the chicken. Where food was specifically asked not to include certain dietary contents, the guy serving didn't pass the message onto the cooks, ruining another meal. The food was £4 more than stated online & we got charged for 1 extra beer than what was ordered to our table & deserts are min £9 each.

Just back home following a gastronomic experience. Locally sourced and foraged food cooked to perfection. Thank you for leaving the coral on my scallops with wild garlic.

Luckily we could both manage a dessert which again were superb. A quiet night where we could talk and hear each other without disturbing background music. An historically interesting setting we will be back for certain. A great end too our 32nd wedding...
