The Mole Inn

Discerning customers travel to this amusingly named village to relax with pints of Hook Norton in the 300-year-old, Grade II listed Mole Inn. They come to enjoy the exciting, two AA Rosette awarded culinary output of award-winning chef/host Gary Witchalls and the front-of-house professionalism of his wife, Jenny, amid leather sofas, stripped beams, solid white walls and terracotta floors. Together with Moodley's microbrewery, they have developed 'The Mole's Pleasure', a real ale which is particularly suited to their dry-aged steaks from Aberdeenshire. Pick from rib-eye, rump, sirloin or fillet steaks and then choose your sauce. Other main courses could include grilled mixed fish with lime aïoli, a rocket and cherry tomato salad and skinny fries; and wild mushroom and cherry tomato linguine with a parmesan cream. Mango and passionfruit Pavlova; treacle tart with ice cream; and a British cheeseboard are among the desserts.
