We stayed just down the road and saw this restaurant as we drove past. It looks quite impressive from the outside. We were almost out of luck because we walked in and everything was booked up. We had a drink in the bar and then there was a cancellation! The food was very well presented and tasted fresh. The service was good, especially as they were very busy. I’d definitely recommend it.

I found the Seige House to have very friendly staff, a relaxed atmosphere and the food very good. It was nice to see everyone had a smile in these trying times, which which gave a reassuring feel.
This place is full of character a 17th century half timbered french style building proudly displaying the original musket shots from the era. But more importantly the food doesn’t let the surroundings down. Offering European food with a modern English twist. Pan Fried Scallops with Pea Purée and Black Pudding Bon Bons. .A generous portion of scallops cooked to perfection sweet and tasty, but I have to say the idea of the black pudding bon bons was genius little balls of rich flavours balanced the pea purée and scallops beautifully. Pan Fried Sea Trout Fillet, Curried Mussel Velouté with New Potatoes and Samphire. Great looking fish, trout was full of smooth flavour and the curried mussels were awesome the sauce was to die for and with the sharp salty taste of the samphire was a great match. Apple and Cinnamon Crumble Tart with Vanilla Ice Cream. What can I say does what it says on the tin, loved the crispy pastry shell and the crumble was sweet and well, crumbly, to be honest and this is my fault I was expecting it to be warm like a crumble rather than cold, but it is a crumble tart so i guess a tart is cold. But a great way to end the meal. . Well that and the cracking espresso martini that replaced your standard filter coffee. . Whilst the food was great I have to also comment on the excellent staff for making us feel so welcome in the current times, it’s hard to be a great host with so many rules but they pulled it off brilliantly. We will certainly be back.
Great staff altogether. Respectfull waitres and managers ready to pass on usefull information.The owner is a knoledgeable hardworking chef who used to teach cookery at the institute. He takes good care of the restaurant elaborating diffrent menus thoughout the year and cooking with fresh seasonal ingredients. The food here is real fresh and is served in a superb, rustic ambient.
A beautiful meal that tasted fresh and inviting, served by staff that where attentive and friendly. Would throughly recommend a visit especially during August because of the \Eat Out to Help Out\ when it is outstanding value.
