For something a little bit different, give this place a bash http://www.ffionas.com/. The eponymous Ffiona is formidable to say the least (I think she’s scouse), and she works like a Trojan. Her weblog on the site is well worth reading, and gives you a taste as to her character, and the restaurant; her sister works there too, so it’s a family affair.
Not exactly cheap, not a rip-off either, but the food is homely and tasty (not flash), and the atmosphere spot-on. It’s got a loyal, local following. If she likes you, you’ll get free drinks after your meal for the whole table, and she may well join you – we’ve been successful on both visits; I discovered Disaronno because of her generosity. It’s a gem.
