Restaurant reviews, opinions and news
My memories of my Tenby visit are fading fast – how annoying that it is now around 28 degrees at home now that we are back at work?? So I had better get on with the rest of my reviews!
My friend Kate was down for the weekend so we decided to go out for a light lunch as she was off to Manor House Leisure Park with her niece for the afternoon (apparently very good – Anna Ryder Richardson now owns it!). (more…)
Well, we have finally got back from 2 weeks in Tenby and although the weather was pretty bad we still had a lovely time with a few days on the beach and general relaxation!
We ate in lots of places so I am intending over the next few days to review most of them.
Ronniz Wine Bar came as a recommendation and we have eaten nice food in here before but unfortunately things were not good this time! (more…)
Well, we had a very quiet week last week when the girls went off to Suffolk to stay with their Granny for a week. They had a thoroughly lovely time and as usual did not want to come home!! Their highlight (apart from Harry Potter and the Anglo Saxon village!) was their night out to the Red Lion in Great Wratting on the Friday night! This pub is an absolute must at Christmas time as the decorations are out of this world (a full size lit up nativity scene in the car park!) but for a good family meal it sounds great fun too!

As you can see we ate out quite a lot which is always nice when on holiday. We were there for the first few days with our friends Mark and Sarah who also have 2 small children so on this occasion we got the lovely Mrs Lewis in to babysit (I still don’t know how old she is but she is definitely over 80 years old!) and went out without the children for a change!
We stopped at the Bush for a drink on the way (obviously!) and then made our way into Bar 10 at around 8pm. This has been a Burger bar for years so not quite my cup of tea so was pleasantly surprised to find it really nicely decorated – uber modern and very “wine bar” with a real buzz to it. For atmosphere this has to be the highlight of the holiday and comes highly recommended! (more…)
Well yesterday was a sad day in our department as our student placement, Katie Raven, who has been with us a year, is leaving to resume her studies! We couldn’t let her go without a pressie, some flowers and a nice lunch out so off we headed to the Royal Oak at Bitteswell (in Leicestershire – 5 minutes from our offices in Lutterworth).
The village is beautiful and picturesque and the pub is a lovely old building with a big garden where you can sit if the weather is nice. Unfortunately yesterday was raining so we sat inside which was nonetheless cosy and inviting. (more…)
