The late lamented Maine
has been given a new lease of life by
Peter and Nicola Leyland-Jones (Peter is the chef and Nicola front
of house) and is now Lanes.
Two of us visited Lanes on a
dreary Monday lunchtime. The lunch menu looked interesting - 2
courses for £12.50. Peter recommended a starter of Seafood
Gratin which was delicious. We followed with Fillet of Sea Bass
served with seared spinach, mange tout, buttered carrots and saffron
potatoes, and a tasty white wine and tomato sauce - beautifully
cooked and served. I chose the Fillet of Beef served with stuffed
tomato, chateau potato, cabbage and a sauce of truffled Madeira jus.
Delicious!
The "sweets" were given a miss
as we were quite satisfied with our gins and tonics and two savoury
courses, so we just settled for coffees. Our total bill for 2 was
£44.00
Also there are choices of light
bites approx £7 and a daily special. They have a Sunday lunch
menu, 2 courses £15.00, 3 courses £18.00 .
We found Lanes to be a friendly
welcoming restaurant and definitely worth seeking out. We wish Peter
& Nicola well with their new venture.
