As locals we had a brilliant meal when this restaurant first opened and were raving about it to our friends - what a mistake!!!!...... We took a group of 10 friends there this year (ie in the summer of 2009 (do they put their prices up then and downgrade the service during the summer months???) Awful - ie very poor meals all round, which were totally over-priced - eg a tiny portion of overcooked (and what looked like a microwaved) lasagna at around £14 - no salad served with it (that cost extra)..... What a complete let down.......

The whole meal was completely embarassing for us (as we had recommended the place to our friends).... and we won't be going back!We definitely wouldn't eat there again - and wouldn't recommend it to anyone!!! We'd have been better off having an honestly microwaved "pub grub" at the local (The Nightjar) - meals cost far less and were just as good as the very poor quality ones that we experienced at Bella Rose in the summer.... and the drinks are miles cheaper too!!!!
