The Hare

Went here for Sunday early evening dinner with the boyff.
When we walked in, we were greeted immediately by a smiling chap asking How we were and if we had a reservation. We didn’t, but he found us a table in the corner which was fine.
He took our drinks order immediately and gave us the menus to look through. It was quite an extensive menu to be fair, without going over the top with a wide variety of fare on offer.
We picked what we wanted and didn’t wait long until we were served our starters. I went for a cheese soufflé which was cooked perfectly, he went for a fish soup which again, was cooked spot on. It was in a large bowl too and not some small silly sized bowl.
Once they were finished the plates were quickly cleared away.
We didn’t wait long for our mains, I went for a burger and chips, he had Hake with squid, mussels and new potatoes. Sides of French beans and dauphinois potatoes.
Boyff really liked his dish and it did look pretty amazing to be fair, that of a standard to restaurants in town.
Okay, mine is a basic staple on all gastro pub menus and it was standard for that level, the Boyff said his was really good and all the fish cooked perfectly and had great flavouring to it.
The service was very good and the waitress was attentive without being in your face.
I asked the question about the dauphinois potatoes as when I tasted them, they tasted of fish, (as I hate the stuff), but I left it at that not pushing the point. When she returned with the bill, she had taken the drinks off the bill, which I thought was a nice touch.
Toilets were really clean and nicely presented.
Plenty of outside seating if the weather allows!
Definitely go back again. Mine was same as any gastro down to what I ordered, but the boyff’s was really good and there are many more dishes that sounded delicious that he wants to try!
