The Lawns Wine Bar

There is a plethora of dining areas to choose from at this smart Georgian house in the centre of town, depending on whether you fancy full-dress restaurant dining, a light meal in the bar, or a bite to eat outdoors overlooking the garden. Seasonal local produce is the watchword throughout, the brasserie-style menu supplemented by daily specials. Herring roes on toast, mussels in white wine, calves' liver with sage mash and red wine jus, or rack of lamb with dauphinoise and ratatouille are among the populist bill of fare. Finish with apple and blackberry crumble and custard, or chocolate and hazelnut cake with cinnamon mascarpone cream.
