Absolutely stunning breakfast, it’s obvious how much love and care has gone into the menu! It was devine! I couldn’t help but stop the chef to ask how they had cooked the tomato’s! Sooo tasty!

Great food, great service, staff are a credit to this new venture. Good value for money served as tapas so expect quality not quantity. Well recommended.

We had a great evening and would highly recommend. Fabulous food, drinks and service, will definitely be back and back.

Rarely am I moved to write reviews good or bad. But such was my experience at The Nettle… Excellent food. Lovely cheery staff giving great service. Very tasteful setting.

Well worth a visit. From the small kitchen comes some big flavours. It’s different to the usual pub grub in town. The vegetable dishes are amazeballs. We had an evening meal but will be back for a breakfast or lunch sometime soon.

Top notch proper food and drink, delicious small plates so you can try lots of things. Great vegetarian and gluten free options. Loved the natural wine – we’ll be back

Bold and wonderful! Strongly recommend for a unique brunch experience

A fantastic restaurant that prides itself on sourcing their produce locally and from sustainable sources like their meat and cheese. Thanks for having us!

This is an amazing find. Really good and imaginative cooking and lots of choice for veggies. Excellent!
