REVIEWS OF Carlton Bore
JS Walker (3 February 2010)
Loved this pub when we went as a foursome on a recent Saturday night! Fish cakes tasted as fish cakes should - of fish not of potato and it was encouraging to see the use of samphire - a much under rated ingredient. We enjoyed it in the samphire and truffle omelet, made at a minute's notice for a veggie in the group and the samphire sauced scallops with pernod. The aniseed tone of the pernod was just right with the seared scallops and worked with the mineral notes of the samphire. So there's someone here who understands flavour balance and good saucing. It was also good to see some old French classics like poulet a la carcassonne - chicken stuffed with duck confit and boeuf landaise - a Scott hessel favourite, the waiter said. So the quirkiness of the surroundings is echoed on the menu in a most delightful way. Also don't miss the morgon from feteuil on the wine list - rare and rather wonderful.

Shortage of salt for the roads was the story of the day, but we made it through the snow to this oddly-named quirky gastro-pub, and salt was the story here too. It sparkled on the hand-cut chips served in bowls lined with photocopies of the local weekly newspaper's favourable review. It pervaded both my guests' fish cake mains at £13.95 to the extent that they could only be half-eaten, and that half spent in the quest among the fish cake, spinach, poached egg or parsley sauce for the culprit. Snag is, once you've had a mouthful of it at this strength, everything tastes of salt. At this point, the standard everything okay question was asked and answered, so off the waiter went to consult the chef. There is smoked salmon in the fish cake, and no salt added to anything, was the explanation. My guests being salty characters who've enjoyed salt cod in Portugal and salt-preserved sardines in Greece, in fact they love the stuff, were far from convinced and could not eat any more in any case. An alternative was not offered. They drained a second jug of water and chose ice cream with alacrity. An imaginative menu and specials board promised much, and starters, which included a brilliantly rich and tasty fish stew, were utterly superb. My veal and rösti main at £16.95, cooked pink to perfection, was truly memorable. There was a token gesture by way of no charge for one coffee and some homemade truffles. Service was warm and friendly.
