Launay's Restaurant

Absolutely beautiful

This place just gets better, ,, bring on summer

We visited severally under the old management which was always excellent. We were so pleased when Launay’s reopened. We are vegetarian, and for our Sunday mains had the only veggie option which was two slices of broccoli tart (we think), accompanied with asparagus shoots, beans and potatoes. The main course size was more like a starter and we were left feeling hungry. For our child we chose macaroni cheese from the kid’s menu with garlic bread. Bizarrely this came unexpectedly served with strong horseradish sauce which our child wouldn’t touch. Why to put strong horseradish sauce in a kid’s dish is beyond us. We asked for them to remake it, which, to their credit, they did, but this time around it was more like a soup with too much liquid. It was served without the advertised garlic bread second time around. Our child ate half and left the rest. The only good thing about our visit was the beer, a Czech pilsner which was delicious. We decided not to chance the deserts and left hungry to finish eating elsewhere. Just to cap off our visit, we heard loud shouting coming from the kitchen as we returned to our car. We won’t be back. Such a disappointment. Vegetarian options: Portion size for the main meal was more like a starter.

Oh dear, food wasn't good, burger buns burnt, chips not at all nice. Pie, pastry not cooked and poor filling. Mashed potatoes watery. Only one carrot. Presentation is great and maybe minimal, but then the flavours have to sing. I'm sorry, I will not be going again.

Was invited to a private function and we were very impressed with the quality and quantity of the food The choice was varied and plentiful Very polite and cheerful staff All in all brilliant evening thank you

Launays has reopened and we were hoping the new owners would keep to the same standard of great food and service. We were not disappointed, everyone was happy and excelled in their service, most importantly the food was very good and tasty and I must mention the cocktails and the new upgraded drinks on offer . Heard lots of great ideas from the new owners, looking forward to our next visit .

Beautiful romantic setting

Super Christmas meal with friends. Great food and atmosphere.
