The Merchant's Cellar

A group of us were there Friday early around 4pm, we thoroughly enjoyed our few hours spent there. The young lady serving is a credit to your establishment. Her non imposing, stellar service is the best I have had in this country in terms of just being so natural and good at it. Wish I had caught her name. But she was the only one there at the time behind the bar, so hopefully she gets credit where its rightly due! We will be back! Wine was delicious as well 😉

What can I say? Myself and my partner visited for a nice evening meal on a Friday. The vibe in this place is superb, with the music fitting the stunning decor, which really is unique. The food was brilliant. With the exception of having no "shell on prawns" (the tiger prawns were not a great replacement and quite bland, although they did advise when we ordered - I'd rather they didn't bother). We ordered an 8 piece deli board including: smoked salmon (lovely and a large portion), smoked mackrel (two fillets of!), the aforementioned prawns (shame), 5 types of cheese and some potatoes in cheese sauce. All accompanied by the largest basket of sourdough bread and sliced baguette. Most cheese / wine / charcuterie places in the area would charge about £50 for the deli board alone, with probably 4/5 pieces of bread and no supporting g salad, pickles or chutney. The price in this place is insane. With two drinks each (2xProsecco, 2xalcohol free lager), the total bill was less than £40. If I could have eaten more I would have ordered again!!! The food is superb. The service was second to none. The vibe is very cool. How this place isn't fully booked EVERY night, I genuinely don't understand. Amazing. Next time you're planning a trip to Renoufs... try this instead. Better, cheaper and cooler.
