Nobles Restaurant

My husband and I have dined at Nobles three or four times. Initially, I felt a little disappointed with the size of the menu. However, on sampling from the menu, I totally retract that statement. The food is, quite simply, fabulous. The décor is chic, yet simple, with stunning artwork backed up a limited, but perfectly executed menu. The members of staff are quick, attentive and approachable. Quite contrary to a previous reviewer who had an unfortunate experience. The puddings are divine and they managed to cater to my eight year old daughter, who probably has the most bland palate on the planet - a testament to the chef's skill in itself.

My only criticism is the automatic inclusion of a service charge on the bill. That really annoyed me, and quite honestly the staff lost the money because had it not been for the automatic charge, our tip would have been larger. I am a believer though that 'tips' are voluntary. If more money is required, increase the price of the fare; don't add an extra, it takes away from what is otherwise a superb experience.

We visited Nobles Restaurant last weekend and really enjoyed the experience. We opted for the 1066 menu, which at £10.66 for two courses was very good value for money. The cod followed by bread and butter pudding were lovely. The staff were friendly and attentive. It's definitely a place I'd recommend and we'll return on our next visit to Battle.
