My husband booked this restaurant on 7/6/13, which was a lovely surprise. We both had a starter (crab and spring rolls) and main course (steak & jerk chicken), we shared a vegetable selection as there was plenty, but didnt have room for a desert, I will go without a starter next time! Friendly service, great presentation, time between your courses... More

Just returned from a fabulous meal at The Mews, beautiful food, wonderful flavours, good value, and despite the dark bar area (that's not a criticism, actually it's a lovely place for a drink!) the restaurant manages to be light and airy place with attentive, friendly service. We've tried to get in here a few times now, all last minute, and... More

Excellent, Excellent, Excellent - food was really good, great choices available, beautifully presented and, of course, the most important of all, tasted great. Excellent service, charming staff and very helpful. I am happy to recommend this restaurant to anyone who wants to have a lovely dining experience. Set in the middle of a breathtaking conservation area, so there's an interesting... More

I eat at the Mews on a regular basis as it remains one of my favourite restaurant/bars. The menu is always changing so you won't be bored. The restaurant is situated upstairs away from the bar area which is great. We often go for drinks in the bar before or after a meal and it feels like 2 venues. The... More

I loved this place... I have went there twice recently. The shabby chik style is fantastic and it's a great place to come for drinks and a place to just hill out. The food in the restaurant was excellent... I particularly liked the Jerk Chicken. Relatively pricey for the area but you pay for the quality of the food and... More

I have eaten here a few times and the food has always been good. But on the last couple of visits I have gone for Sunday Lunch. I have been disappointed to say the least. I had the lamb on my first visit and this was over cooked and dry which was surprising as we were told there was a... More

I went here on a Thursday night with some work friends. We had a few interesting beers downstairs from a friendly and relaxed bar man and, on whim, asked if they had a table for 5 upstairs for dinner. Luckily for us they did. The food was really good: Modern British cooking (basically a mix of traditional British classics and... More

Had our 2nd meal here last night and pleased to say it was as good as the first time. The restaurant is shabby chic with a relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. The food is fantastic, the combination of flavours that they put together works brilliantly. Our new favourite restaurant

We've been to The Mews a few times and have always enjoyed it. It's definitely one of the nicer restaurants in the area. Not sure the cheap paper napkins match the style of restaurant though.
