Perkins Restaurant & Bakery

Had a brilliant stay here in The Great Oak hut. With an amazing 3 course meal and house bottle of wine. The food was absolutely delicious and cooked to perfection. The stay in the hut was very cosy and warm. We had a relaxing bath and chilled for the rest of the evening after our dinner. Got up the following morning to go for our traditional English breakfast which was all top quality meats along with plenty of coffee and orange juice. Perfect place for a relaxing get away weekend. Trish the Manager there was so friendly and helpful and made our stay incredible and couldn’t do enough for us. Thank you Trish for your warming welcome. Highly recommend to everyone. A***

I visit Perkins a few times per year and love going every time. Staff are lovely and food is great. Valentines meal last night was 5*

My Son and Daughter in Law gave both my wife and I a voucher for Christmas back in 2020. However due to lockdown we didn’t manage to book to visit this establishment. The time has now come and we eventually visited and had a tremendous experience at Perkins. The initial reception and customer service was excellent. The food was first class and so enjoyable. I have been fortunate to dine at other restaurants in the area but, Perkins are an extremely hard act to follow….I would most certainly recommend this place for that “special place” to book and go to.

Visited Perkins for the first time last Saturday evening. Oh my goodness, what a find! I like good food and I would go as far as to say that it's the best food I've ever tasted. We all had something different from the menu and every dish across every course was blummin' lovely. I have never tasted gravy like Perkins gravy. At £38 for 3 courses it was a bargain and I can't wait to go again. The staff were so friendly and attentive, really felt like a valued customer. Just wish it wasn't dark when we came out, it's in beautiful grounds and would have liked to have had a look at the accommodation available too. Thank you Perkins, keep doing what you are doing, its perfect.

Me and my boyfriend stayed here in the great oak shepherds hut last week, and cannot stop talking about how great it was. Our dinner was delicious and the service which came with it was fab. As well as the dinner, the fry up the following morning was perfect. We enjoyed our time so much we will be back soon hopefully. Thank you for making our weekend so special.

Great meal with friends for a pre- Christmas celebration. The service was prompt, the food hot and tasty and the decor was lovely. Unfortunately, no trains passed by but you can't have everything! We travelled a long way for our meal and weren't disappointed and we will definitely consider visiting again if in the area. Many thanks for a most enjoyable experience. Merry Christmas! Parking: Parking was easy on the day despite the restaurant being very busy. We found spaces very close to the entrance.

We sat outside and enjoyed a drink till everybody arrived. Inside we were well looked after and between us ordered the chicken, beef and pork Sunday roasts. I had the pork which was both tender and moist with a nice portion of crackling on top. There were six very empty plates after we had finished. A lovely moist sicky toffee pudding rounded of the meal nicely. Great food, attentive staff and a lovely setting has to be five stars.

Putting this here as a reminder to come back after a whistle stop coffee. Hidden gem that clearly many people have frequented since the 1980’s yet unknown to us. Will definitely be back

Excellent lunch at this well run independent establishment. Lovely seating in the conservatory and all tables taken on a Thursday lunchtime. Good value set 3 course menu with additional specials. Great venue for a celebration lunch. Vegetarian options: Several veggie options for all courses. Beetroot risotto was excellent.

Just had a really pleasant lunch experience at Perkins. Good service and top quality food in relaxed atmosphere with attention to details in presentation of the food and the surroundings. We really do enjoy this place.Recommended dishesTiramisu with Coffee Ice Cream
