Lovely lunch for a 60th birthday celebration. Great restaurant, with a good atmosphere, comfy seating, open, light and airy. Excelent service, very attentive, but not intrusive. Delicious food, the pea soup was bursting with flavour and my cod was cooked well and tasted great! Lamb cooked to order and very suculant. Lovely gesture of a "happy birthday" plate of petitfours - a very nice touch Quite pricey for a bottle of wine at £42, but worth it for a special occasion. Thank you for a lovely time - I highly recomend the Origin
