The Bear Hotel

Dating back to the early 13th century, this hotel was once owned by King Henry VIII and visited by Queen Elizabeth I. Although it has retained its dark wooden beams, The Bear is now contemporary and stylish, with the restaurant's white walls featuring modern prints and tables set with crisp white linen. The kitchen deals in fresh, locally sourced produce and an accomplished, crowd-pleasing brasserie-style repertoire of intelligently simple dishes; from classics like beer-battered cod with chunky chips and mushy peas to more modern offerings like new season lamb served with roasted scallops and hot-pot potatoes, or to finish, perhaps a fine apple tart with orange marmalade ice cream and vanilla seed custard.
