I left still hungry... Having had a starter, mains and pudding I was surprised to find that I still had room for more at the end of the evening. Service was excellent, restaurant nicely quiet and food all tasted fine. Portions were not over generous and although I had the xmas buster burger it did not do its title justice. I would however go back and definitely recommend this place.

I wish I could give this establishment 10/10 - or more! We stop in here when we are up from London to visit our parents and we have never had a bad experience. Lovely staff, gorgeous atmosphere and decor and the food - never fails to leave us speechless! Such an innovative and well executed menu, always delivered and presented in a memorable way. Definitely one of the highlights of Hingham!

We had a fabulous stay here last Saturday. Staff were fantastic, helpful and curtious. Food is excellent. Room was rustic with modern touches and a very comfortable bed. Such an old historic building with modern and stylish twist. Wonderfully unique. Bravo

Went here on a Thursday evening for a meal with family and was well impressed. It was busy and we had to book ahead, but there are several rooms and plenty of space. The food was excellent and the staff very friendly and accommodating. Prices were reasonable but there were some creative offerings on the menu and a good range of drinks. I just wish I lived closer; I would call in regularly!
