The Goodhawk, Hockley

Last night Robert and I went to this rare gem of a place and had the best night. So much so we’re taking Robert’s dad and sister there next weekend. When you find something this good you just want to share it! Run by Natasha and Sean, both creative, talented people who were a lot of fun. The love that they have put into their business is obvious from the moment you walk through the door. Log fire burning, soft candle lighting, quirky and stylish decor - they have created an ambience that immediately makes you feel at home and if that doesn’t their welcome most definitely will.

The Glen Tavern, Glen Williams

Every time I have been, the food, quality and taste, have been outstanding and we love the comfortable setting, good lighting (a must for both Robert and I) and atmosphere. Not cheap but if you want a great night out and an all round quality experience, I cannot recommend the Glen Tavern highly enough.
