Hay & Straw

Someone made magic happen here. Whether you want to listen to quality vocalists on a regular basis or drink a lovely glass of bubbly as a welcome gift while you await your meal. The atmosphere here is so authentically European it's amazing. We enjoyed a delicious meal, recommend the house specials by Executive chef Massimiliano & Mario Grippa who have created a menu featuring a classic modern British & Italian blend. Recommend the Micro Salad With Greens and the Braised Leg of Lamb....and the proper pairing of wine and bubbly, whatever Massimiliano & Mario suggest to accompany it. Recommend this delicate restaurant for a healthy life once a week at least.

Great service, without being overbearing. Plenty of choice on the menu and were really accommodating of a request for a childs portion from the main menu. The food was outstanding! Photo shows the Prawn and mussel pasta, which was huge and incredibly tasty! Would highly recommend this restaurant ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Have to say that this is a really good new restaurant. Excellent food and menu. Lovely friendly staff. Service was good. Yesterday was our second visit. Will definitely be going again. This may sound strange, but I would like to be left to enjoy the lovely food rather than the staff coming back several times each course to ask if everything is stilli okay.... Appreciate them asking but no need to overdo it. Oh, the sauce on the scallops wasn't great. Rather bland and didn't suit the dish. Overall, a great restaurant which we'll definitely be going to again.

Took my mum here for her birthday lunch and the whole experience was fantastic. Great service, beautiful restaurant and amazing food. The staff were friendly, welcoming and nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was beautifully presented, perfect portion size and delicious. Strongly recommend this restaurant.

I had booked a table for 25 of us. Being a big group, I was concerned whether the restaurant would be able to deliver. My meal was exceptional. Bresola to start, and Ribe-eye Steak for main course which was cooked to perfection (rare) and full of flavour. Atmosphere was busy and staff were very attentive and friendly. Thoroughly recommemded - I just hope you keep these standards up!
