Steeped in history, and influenced by the bistros of rural Italy, The Courtyard is certainly a place to visit.

    From the smell of the food upon entering the restaurant to the amazing service we received The Courtyard was a very welcome find for a last minute date night. The small menu is varied and I struggled to choose between the dishes I ordered. All staff are attentive but not over zealous, the ambience was lovely and we were lucky with being sat next to the wood burning stove. Wine list has been put together brilliantly again varied but not too much choice, we chose a NZ Sauv Blanc which I will now be trying to find for home. My Negroni was delicious as was my partners cosmopolitan, not normally a drink I enjoy but it wasn’t overly sweet which was great. Food served was great quality, literally my own small disappointment of the night was that the yolk in my poached egg starter was overcooked, though I still thoroughly enjoyed it. Scallop ere perfect as was the chicken supreme and game pie for mains. We don’t normally have desserts but both decided on one due to the quality of the food We will definitely be back

    We love the courtyard and have eaten here a number of times. Always excellent until tonight. Staff as always friendly and helpful. Food very tasty but unfortunately delivered cold. We had to wait 45 minutes from arrival until food was delivered. Maybe it’s because they were very busy and we get that. Just a few tweaks would make the experience excellent.

    Booked for 5.30pm, lovely atmosphere and we hadn’t realised it was burns night so some specials on the menu. The staff are lovely and go above and beyond to make sure that you have a great time. Mix up with our wine but the one we got was lovely. We ordered the haggis scotch eggs with whiskey sauce for starter, one of us never tried haggis and they were delicious with the soft runny yolk. The sauce was beautiful and tasty. Then we ordered another special the North Sea fish pie for two people. Fish pie is our favourite. Big fluffy bits of cod and salmon, sweet potato, cheese, it was amazing. Absolutely love having this place on our doorstep!
